Drive for Personal

Your own Google Drive, sorted. Every morning at 7 it reads your Drive and shows:

• Shared with you: what family, friends and school shared, the ones you haven't opened marked.
• Where you left off: the files you worked on lately, one tap away.
• What fills your Drive: your storage and the biggest files in it, before it fills up.

On Sundays it checks what is open to anyone with the link, the private files first. On the 1st of the month it finds your important papers (passport, ID, insurance, the house, the car, taxes) and the dates in them: what expires, renews or ends.

Then you can just ask. "Where is my passport scan?" "When does the car insurance renew?" The answer names the file and where it is.

To start

Open My files and press Connect Google Drive. You sign in with Google, once. Until then the page shows a made-up person, clearly marked.

For now Drive works in the Cabinet app on your computer.

It only reads

My files never changes, moves, shares or deletes a file in Drive. When something needs fixing (a passport open to anyone, a Drive almost full), it shows you where, and you do it in Drive.

Inside

• My files: the app this cabinet opens on, and what you told it about you.
• Reports: one page per morning, the Sunday sharing check, the monthly papers, and the lists you ask for, like what expires this year.
