That means that you\u2019re not simply sending a link, which would stop working if you ever delete a file, and that you\u2019re actually sending a legitimate copy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow you can be sure your friend will always have that great candid photo from your weekend getaway, or the PDF for your aunt\u2019s fruitcake recipe (do people actually eat Fruitcake?) even if you delete it from your Drive,\u201d Google explained.<\/p>\n<p>The company is also rolling out a new option that allows you to search Google Drive using voice on Android. You might say \u201cOk Google, Search for Science Presentation on Drive,\u201d to query it for your document. Additionally, Google said that iOS users will now be able to upload files from other third party applications into drive, and that both Android and iOS users can now easily share and find any custom maps created through Google My Maps.<\/p>\n<p>The latest iOS version of Google Drive is available now and Google said an updated Android version with the new features will be available in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/+GoogleDrive\/posts\/9WQ65DRgG6M\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GOOGLE (1)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/+Gmail\/posts\/E2k6eTuJtaC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GOOGLE (2)<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google recently discussed several new features that are launching for its Google Drive cloud storage product, including enhancements to how users will interact with Google Drive from mobile devices and through other Google services, such as Gmail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[16,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-888","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-internet","category-software","et-doesnt-have-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=888"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=888"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=888"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmtech.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=888"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
