Hi, Google Drive is usually just there as "Drive". I believe that you must already have the service installed on your iOS device for it to be usable by the Files app. So, if you didn't have Google Drive installed and signed into, then it likely would not be an option withi

Hi Simon, If on iOS, you are totally correct. There is no need for a third party app. The Files app that is stock with iOS devices has the ability to integrate DropBox iCloud Drive and Google Drive and to move files between them. It may handle One Drive as well, but I don't have it and
