We’re updating the homepage of the Google Drive mobile app on Android and iOS mobile devices to help you more easily find the right file much faster. 

An updated suggested view will allow you to see even more recommended files at once, such as those that have been recently opened, shared or edited. 

In addition, we’re replacing the notifications view with activity view, which recently launched on web. Here you can see items that need your attention such as pending access requests, recent comments, and awaiting approvals, all in one place. 

Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. End users: There is no end user setting for this feature. If you do not want to use the home tab, the app will simply open up on whatever tab you last used, such as Shared or Files. 

Android: 

Rapid and Scheduled Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on November 6, 2023 

iOS: 

Rapid and Scheduled Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on November 10, 2023 

Available to all Google Workspace customers and users with personal Google Accounts
