Google Files adds a new favorites folder in its latest update

Google Files has just been updated with an interesting and important new feature: a new favorites folder. After adding support for cloud storage and a advanced video playback system, now comes the possibility of adding content to favorites, simply and visually.

Apart from being able to save the files that we want within this favorites folder, we have the advantage that these files will be excluded from storage cleaning and suggestions for it, so they will be “safe” at all times.

A favorite folder that Files won’t delete

Google Files is the file manager created by Google. One of its star functions is how good it is cleaning internal storage, since it looks for all those duplicate files, those that are taking up a lot of space, screenshots and others.

This tool is great for deleting junk, but we may inadvertently delete something we wanted to keep. New favorites folder arrives to save files that you want to save in memory, since they will be excluded from the application’s periodic analysis. With the latest update of Google Files, this folder already appears, so you only have to update to version v1.0.362806406. To save files in favorites the process is simple.

• Open Google Files
• Select any file you have
• Click on the menu button
• Click on ‘Add to Favorites’

The favorites folder, like the rest, allows you to sort files by date, size and name, as well as various types of view. This folder is next to the secure folder, at the bottom of the application.
