Google released a bunch of minor updates to a few of its Android apps like Google Earth and Google Maps. The most notable changes came with the Google Drive update. Users can now stream videos they’ve uploaded to their Google Drive right from their Android device.
Previously, users could only download the video to view it. Now videos can be streamed instantly. This is handy, but isn’t an earth-shattering update. There is also a catch with this new update as it only supports devices running Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) or later. This leaves a lot of users running Android 2.3 out of luck.
Another useful, albeit boring, update to Google Drive is the ability to pinch and zoom from within presentations. It only works in the presentation viewer mode and not in full screen. This will benefit those with smaller screens but won’t really help those with 720p or higher resolution screens.
There are also a bunch of performance and bug fixes in this update, though the app was pretty stable before.
To get the latest update, head over to the Google Play store or download it right here.
