SD cards: We’ve expanded our SD card support since many of you use SD cards to backup important files. With one tap in the list or grid view, you can easily filter to see files stored on your SD card.
Tablets: Files Go now runs on tablets so you can manage storage and transfer files between your small and big screen Android devices without using any data.
Opening files in other apps: You can also customize which apps open your files with our new “Open with” flow. This should give you greater flexibility and control when handling all types of files. For example, to open PDF files, you may want to use your favorite PDF viewing app and that’s now possible.

Making privacy personal with Files by Google

As more than 150 million people around the world use Files by Google, we’re launching Safe Folder to make sure that privacy can be a reality for everyone.

Safe Folder is a secure, 4-digit PIN-encrypted folder that protects your important documents, images, videos and audio files from being opened or accessed by others. The folder is securely locked as soon as you switch away from the Files app, so none of its contents can be accessed when the app is in the background. As a security assurance, it will ask for your PIN again on reentry. Even people that don't share devices can benefit from keeping the most important files safe.

We’re also working with the National e-Governance Division and Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MEITY) to bring Digilocker-verified documents directly onto the Files by Google App for Android users. With this feature, people can quickly and safely organize their most-used documents on their smartphones for easy and private access on-the-go.
