+ Give your users access to their files, wherever they are, on any device.
+ The Google Drive Android API makes it easier than ever to use Drive to
+ store and sync user’s files between their mobile devices and the cloud.
+ Simply use Drive like local file storage and the API will handle the
+ syncing for you.

+ Key Developer Features
+ </h3>
+
+ <h4>
+ Automatic syncing
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ The Google Drive Android API uses the local device storage to create,
+ edit, and open files, then syncs them automatically when the device
+ is connected to the Internet. If a user requests a file that isn’t
+ already cached on the device, the Drive service downloads the file
+ the next time the device connects.<br>
+ <a href="http://developers.google.com/drive/android/files" class=
+ "external-link">Open a file</a>
+ </p>
+
+ <h4>
+ User interface components
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ Building your own user interface for selecting or creating files is a
+ thing of the past. The Drive API includes activity builders for two
+ of the most common user activities: opening files and creating
+ files.<br>
+ <a href="http://developers.google.com/drive/android/create-file"
+ class="external-link">Create a file</a>
+ </p>
+
+ <h4>
+ Easily search for files
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ The query builder allows you to easily construct a query by joining
+ together multiple parameters and filtering based on metadata. This
+ allows you to easily display only relevant files, such as files
+ shared with the user or files with a specific MIME type.<br>

+ Getting Started
+ </h3>
+
+ <h4>
+ 1. Get the Google Play services SDK
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ The Google Drive Android API is part of the Google Play services
+ platform.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ To get started, <a href=
+ "{@docRoot}google/play-services/setup.html">set up the Google Play
+ services SDK</a>.
+ </p>
+
+ <h4>
+ 2. Run the sample
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ Once you’ve set up the Google Play services SDK, you can run the
+ Google Drive sample located in
+ <code>&lt;android-sdk&gt;/extras/google-play-services/samples/drive</code>.
+ However, before you can run the sample, you need to register your app
+ in the Google Developers Console.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ See <a class="external-link" href=
+ "http://developers.google.com/drive/android/get-started">Getting
+ Started guide</a> to learn how to get up and running with the Google
+ Drive Android API.
+ </p>
+
+ <h4>
+ 3. Read the documentation
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ For quick access while developing your Android apps, the <a href=
+ "{@docRoot}reference/com/google/android/gms/drive/package-summary.html">
+ Google Drive API reference</a> is available here on
+ developer.android.com.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Detailed documentation for the Google Drive Android API is available
+ with the rest of the Google Drive Platform documentation at <a class=
+ "external-link" href=
+ "https://developers.google.com/drive/android">developers.google.com/drive</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p class="caution">
+ The Google Drive Android API is currently in <strong>developer
+ preview</strong>. Applications compiled using this version of the API will
+ continue to operate on devices using future versions of Google Play services;
+ however, changes to the API are expected in future releases.
