It’s now possible for users to work on Docs, Sheets, and Slides files when your device is offline or have a bad internet connection within Google Drive. You can also preview which files are available offline with a new offline preview mode. -Admins: Admins can enable this feature for all or some users: To let users enable offline access (recommended), go to Apps > G Suite > Drive and Docs. To enable offline access for specific devices, see this article in our Help Center. Note: The default for this feature is that all users can enable offline access on any device they sign into, but it is not enabled automatically except on Chromebooks -End users: To work with your files while offline, you’ll need to enable offline access in your Drive settings: From Google Drive, click the gear icon at the top right corner, select Settings > General and select Sync Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings files to this computer so that you can edit offline. Once offline access is enabled, a checkmark icon will appear in the top right next to Settings (gear icon) and Support (question mark). When you click this icon, you can find the offline preview toggle.
