Android Question Android Google Drive folders

[hanyelmehy]

anyway to check if google drive is installed and check it's folder to save/read files for it
the idea to make backup for clients data (database/images/......) to google drive in easy and fast way without API

Create a batch file to backup the files you want to google-drive. No API needed. Windows has commands to copy files and folders.

Storing your project on GoogleDrive (and run it from there) is not a good idea.
