[Amazing discovery of Google Drive's "Quick Access" feature]

I have a document that works only on every Monday. This document is a weekly business plan document and is in Google Drive as a Google Spreadsheet document. This document will be edited only on Monday morning.

In other words, this document is a document that is rarely accessed in Google Drive for a week and is only edited momentarily on Monday morning.

When I logged in to Google Drive today to work on this document on Monday morning, I found that Drive automatically recommends this document (along with the message "I opened it at this time") in Drive's Quick Access.


After a careful review of the documents displayed in the 'quick access' section over the last week, it has been confirmed that it does not show frequently accessed documents or recently accessed documents.

Google Drive analyzes every pattern you work on (A.I technology based on Google's Machine Learning). Based on the results of this analysis, I can quickly recommend the documents I need in the 'Quick Access' section.

Google is making Google Drive's "Priority" and Workspace features a "Quick Access" feature. Priority & Workspace functionality is currently in beta testing.

Priority and Workspace help me quickly find the documents I need on my drive (which can increase efficiencies by more than 50%), and save time creating folders and sorting documents.

[About Stylus pen for Samsung Chromebook Plus - Pros. & Cons.]

One of the things that makes Samsung Chromebook Plus different from other Chromebooks is its stylus pen support.


When you unplug the pen on the top right of your Chromebook Plus, the following stylus tool will automatically appear at the bottom of your Chrome browser and Google Keep will launch when you launch the "New Note" app for your stylus pen.

The only app that supports stylus pens in Chrome is Google Keep. You can annotate over the image by hand, using the pen features in Google Keep.

There are a lot more Android apps in the Google Play Store that support stylus pens.


'ArtCanvas' provided by Samsung, Autodesk Sketch app provided by Autodesk is the leading Android app supporting the stylus pen.

The 'Squid' app is a great notes app that supports the stylus pen. All work great on Chromebook Plus with Android apps that you can install free from the Google Play Store.

This is a great advantage for the stylus pen of the Samsung Chromebook plus.

However, there are some disadvantages that are not supported among some expected functions in Chrome.

I use G Suite's Google Docs, Google Slides, and Google Drawing tools for personal and business use. Unfortunately, the stylus pen does not work properly with this tool. I can not draw shapes with this stylus pen in Google Docs, Slides, or Drawings. I have to draw with the mouse  or the touch pad as before.

Other extensions for Google Docs include extension apps like DocuSign and HelloSign. Apps that allow you to insert handwritten images on Google documents or PDF documents. In this app, you can register a handwritten sign image, but it will not work with this stylus pen, but you have to sign with the mouse. (In case of DocuSign, there is android app in Google Play Store and the android app supports the stylus pen.)

All in all, it seems that the only app that works with Chrome is Google Keep. Most of them seem to support only Android apps.

I expect to see improvement in the future.
