Files by Google app now makes recent files easier to find than ever

What you need to know

  • Google has redesigned some elements of its popular file management app.
  • Users will be able to view their recent files in the form of a carousel, just like their Memories on the Google Photos app.
  • The new change is seen in the latest beta and some official versions of the app.

I couldn’t give two hoots about this, but it’s probably a good thing for ‘normal’ people.

My dad for example can never find a file once it’s disappeared from the notifications, so he always just goes back and downloads the file again whenever he needs it, duplicating it over and over because he has no idea “where it went”

That’s because the modern UX designers have spent the last decade trying to unteach everyone the directory structure, so they can sell you their weird, inferior, confusing, bullshit file sorting ideas. I myself sometimes just give up before finding the file.

Does anyone use Google files in this community? I use solid file explorer due to its dynamic search function, dual pane layout, and smooth colorful interface.

I use Google files in an effort to minimize the amount of 3rd party software on my phone - particularly when it comes to file access.

i have nothing against google files but i feel material files is a lot more fully featured.

limerod OP ,

Yeah, I have that as a backup option as it’s super smooth and supports multiple windows.

Not for file management but it’s handy for quick clean up

Sort by date is really newsworthy in 2024 I guess.
