    • 1.When I install GDocsDrive and start it for the first time, it redirects me to Google’s account sign in page, instead of directly asking me for my email and password. Why?

      This is the recommended login method from Google for any third party product. You may experience some websites asking you to login using your Facebook, Twitter, or Google account without registration. This is called OAuth login (Wikipedia), which is still not commonly used on client apps yet. It is a much safer login standard, which can protect your credentials from being leaked to third parties.

    • 2.After the 14-day free trial, what will happen to GDocsDrive without payment?

      After the 14-day trial, you can still use GDocsDrive, but some features will be disabled until payment is received.

    • 5.How much online storage do I get through GDocsDrive?

      GDocsDrive is just a software client for Google Docs, so all the online storage you use is from Google and we are not responsible for cloud storage.

    • 6.I have multiple Google accounts, how can I switch between them?

      Select "Logout/switch account" from the File menu. GDocsDrive will revoke your current tokens and redirect you to the Google Account sign in web-page to login with another account.
