Tap the video to reveal playback controls, then tap the “More” button (…) or share icon (box with arrow).
By following these steps, you can bridge the gap between cloud storage and local playback, ensuring your favorite videos are always just a tap away!
To move it to your iPhone’s Photos app (where all your camera roll videos live):
Tap the three dots (…) next to the video file name.
If you don't necessarily need the video in your Photos app but want to watch it without using data, use the toggle in the Google Drive menu. This keeps the file inside the Drive app, allowing you to watch it anywhere without taking up space in your main photo gallery.
Tap the video you want. It will start playing in the browser.
Ensure you are signed into the account where the video is stored.

In the Google Drive app, tap the three dots next to the video.
