Google improves handling of offline files Docs Sheets and Slides



google docs sheets slidesGoogle Apps for Work allows an admin to specify which files users can save offline, but it’s currently not a fine-tuned experience. Enabling offline access simply downloads a subset of documents, spreadsheets, and presentations to a local device, mostly based on how recently those files have been accessed. Not a terrible solution, but not great either.

The latest update for Google Apps adds a little more control to the situation. Users can now specify exactly which files they want to keep offline in the overflow menu, so if you only need a handful of files or a document that you haven’t actually accessed in several months, you can do that manually instead of hoping for the best.

This feature is going to be available to users in Chrome, and only if the admin of those files has specified that they can be downloaded offline. The feature should be rolling out to everyone over the next two weeks.
