What Autosync for Google Drive does
Autosync for Google Drive is a file sync and backup tool for Android. It links folders on the phone or tablet with a Google Drive account and keeps them matched in both directions. The developer positions it for photo sync, document backup and moving files between devices.
The developer says Google's own Drive app does not offer two-way automatic sync on Android, and this app is meant to fill that gap. People who want a folder on the device and the same folder in Drive to stay identical, without copying files by hand, are the audience the listing describes.
Two-way syncing with Google Drive
New files added to the Drive account are downloaded to the device. New files added on the device are uploaded to Drive. Each side is watched, so the folder on the phone and the folder in the cloud keep tracking one another.
Deletions also carry across. If a file is removed on one side, the app removes the matching copy on the other side. Anyone relying on this for backups should know that a deletion on either side is mirrored, not kept as a copy.
Keeping a phone and tablet in step
The listing says the app works across several devices. A phone and a tablet can each sync a folder with the same Google Drive account, and the two devices stay in step through the cloud.
This makes it useful for sharing files between a phone and a tablet without a cable or a messaging app, since each device reaches the same Drive folder.
Photo sync, file backup and transfer
The developer names photo sync, document and file backup, automatic file transfer and automatic file sharing between devices as the main uses. Photos and documents in a chosen folder can be copied to Drive as they appear, which is how the backup use works.
Because transfers run automatically once folders are linked, the same setup covers both moving files between devices and keeping a standing backup in the cloud.
How transfers are protected
The developer says file transfers and communication between the device and Google Drive are encrypted. Files go directly between the device and the cloud, not through the developer's servers, according to the listing.
On the developer's account, no outside party can decrypt, view or change file contents during transfer.
