Gizmo's Freeware: Google Docs and Sheets Now Available as Standalone Apps for Apple iOS and Android |
Google Docs and Sheets Now Available as Standalone Apps for Apple iOS and Android Posted: 05 May 2014 01:31 AM PDT Google has launched new mobile apps for both Google Docs and Google Sheets, separate from the existing Google Drive app. Both apps are now available for a free install from Google Play for your Android device and from the App Store for your iPhone or iPad. For some time we have been able to view, create or edit Google documents and spreadsheets using the Drive app, but these standalone apps get us straight to the type of documents we intend to work on. You can also create, view and edit files without an Internet connection. Need a document? go to the Docs app and it lists only Google documents you already have; need a spreadsheet? go to the Sheets app and it allows you to browse and edit only spreadsheets without mixing up with other types of documents. These standalone apps do have a Google Drive button on the sidebar. Tapping this button opens up your Google Drive app for you to access all other documents that you've stored in the cloud using the service. If you don't have the Drive app already installed on your device, the standalone apps will prompt you to install it. Similarly, when you want to edit or create a new document or spreadsheet using a new version of the Drive app, it will prompt you to install Google Docs or Sheets app respectively if it has not been available on your device. The third app, Google Slides, is known to be released in the near future. http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/google-docs-and-sheets-now-available-standalone-apps.htm |
