There are 4 incredibly useful of Google drive could do

If you're thinking of Google Drive as a mere place to plop your files, you're missing out on some pretty powerful possibilities. Here are 4 ways Drive can make your day a teensy bit easier - and pave the way for a more productive, hassle-free week. 

1. Speedy Data Saving - Scan documents and receipts directly into Drive with the Google Drive app for Android. 

2. Next-Level File Manipulation - Got a PDF file you need to edit like a regular document? No problem: Right-Click (or Ctrl-click) the file's name on the Drive website and then hover over the "Open with" option. 

3. Advanced Organization - Google Docs lets you look back at different versions of a document, in case you need to see or restore your work from an earlier point. You can follow that same model and maintain multiple versions of any file in Google Drive—a PDF, an image, an archive, an audio file, you name it—for easy reference and later restoring. 

4. Smarter Sharing - If you have a paid G Suite account, you can opt to make a file in your Drive storage available to someone else only for a limited period of time.
