About

  • Enable offline mode in Drive settings so you can view and edit Docs, Sheets, and Slides without an internet connection — changes sync automatically when you reconnect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when 15 GB is full?

Once you exceed 15 GB, you won't be able to upload new files or receive Gmail attachments until you free up space or upgrade. Google One plans start at $2.99/month for 100 GB and can be shared with up to 5 family members.

Does the recipient need a Google account to view shared files?

No. If you set the sharing permission to "Anyone with the link", the recipient can view the file without a Google account. However, editing requires signing in with a Google account.

Can I recover deleted files?

Deleted files are kept in the Trash for 30 days. You can restore them at any time within that window. After 30 days they are permanently deleted, so back up important files regularly.
