Just adding to the excellent post above. Just updated to 6.9.4 - All the Beta labelling has been removed so apparently, we are to believe this is now release grade software. Just to point out that this App is still not fit for purpose. If you use Google Docs, sheets etc. as part of your enterprise workflow, they are NOT downloaded from Google Drive onto the NAS device. This is at variance with other vendors implementations (Synology for example). If you are considering buying a ReadNAS and expecting to use it in this way then I would think again. As pointed out above, there are serious shortcomings with this App / Add on and the docuementation is both unhelpful and misleading. There is also no response to anything posted here and as pointed out above you have to pay to report a bug. The left image below is my actual google drive and the right hand one is the ReadyNAS - I can find no documentation to either confirm or even justify this exclusion. Any clues ?
