Google Drive for Android update simplifies uploading, creating and scanning files

Google's been making the Drive app on Android better and better with every update since its debut on the platform -- and lest we forget its iOS counterpart, too. Today's new features might not be as flashy as the ones we saw with the introduction of the card UI, with Google placing emphasis on core functionality and making it easier to create, scan and upload files. Drive users will now see buttons for said functions near the bottom of the application, which then allows them to be quickly triggered with a simple tap. Google also points out that the app's theme now sports a lighter color, with the idea being to make "content easier on the eyes." If anything, the cupcakes shown on the sample screenshot are definitely making our mouths watery.
