Google Docs vs Google Drive

Docs refers to the web-based editors to create, edit, and share Google documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, and forms.

These online documents are tightly integrated with other Google Apps services and provide very powerful real-time collaboration features.

Drive is a single place to manage all your files, including Google Docs. Think of Google Drive as your personal stash of files and folders that follows you wherever you go - it lets you keep everything and share anything. Access files, folders, and Google Docs from a web browser or any device where you've installed your Google Drive.  

You can use Google Drive to store all file types, including documents, presentations, music, photos, and videos.

Take advantage of Drive by downloading Google Drive to your hard drive. You can then access all your docs offline.

Shared with me – holds items others have created and shared with you.

My Drive – holds items you upload or create.

Accessing Google Docs Offline

Once you install Google Drive on your hard drive, you will have a folder where all your files will be synced.

Adding your existing documents to Google Drive is as easy as dragging a file to a folder.
