google drive app

[Slawomir Dzwonek]

i have downloaded pdf files on my android device which i see by documents/download folders.
my google drive app where i also have pdf files is switched off. when i switch this app on ,
i see my android pdf files and pdf files from google drive all together in my android documents !my wish is not to see these g.drive files between my android files, just separately - android documents and g.drive app...
how can i do it?

Make a new folder for your google drive account, and once you seperated them both, then it should add in only that file and the other one too, just remember to save on a different location as well.

Also keep in mind that Google Drive has a built in PDF reader.

If this is the reader that you use, then any PDF files saved with Google will appear.

There are many other PDF readers, and using one that is not from Google will not reveal any files stored on Google Drive.

The PDF files on the device are what would be shown instead.

I almost forgot it has a PDF reader.

Thanks for this but it's strange/good happened - now it works the way it should: i have google drive with its own PDFs and android documents with my downloaded pdfs! i hope it will stay that way for good...end of this case ...
