Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides for Android, Tablets and Foldable Phones.
- The optimizations made by Google will enhance tablet performance.
- The company's apps will have complete drag-and-drop and mouse capabilities.
- Toggle designs have recently been revised in Google Docs for Android.
As part of various updates to its workspace applications for documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, the search engine giant has optimised Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Slides for tablets and foldable phones.
At Google I/O earlier this year, the firm previously disclosed that it would improve more than 20 Google applications to perform better on tablets. For certain Google Workspace apps, it has also improved drag-and-drop functionality and introduced full mouse support.
Drag and drop for content is one of the capabilities that some Workspace applications are getting. According to the business, users will be able to easily drag material from an app into Slides and other Google Apps.
This implies that on Android, you will be able to easily drag material from Slides into other apps when you have two programmes open side by side. This will speed up and simplify the process of importing media.
This year, Google Drive introduced a function that enables users to swiftly upload files by dragging and dropping them into the application. Additionally, Google has made it possible to move files and folders around in the Drive app by enabling drag-and-drop capability.
Google has announced all the new features coming to Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, and Google Drive for Android in a blog post. Owners of tablets and foldable phones will find the majority of these features handy.
The Google Docs app has also been upgraded to include complete mouse functionality on Android. Instead of scrolling across the document to pick text, you can now just click and drag the text. All of these capabilities are currently being rolled out, so Google advises updating your Google Workspace apps completely if you're unable to use them.
The business just released updated toggles for its Android word editing, spreadsheet, and presentation apps. The Material 3 (M3) switch is now larger than before because to the new switches' pill-like form.
The track is now taller and wider, and new colour mappings have also been introduced. The most recent iteration of Google's Workspace apps for Android also features the newly designed switches.
