Google is rolling out updates this week for Google Docs and Sheets for Android as well as Google Drive on the web, the company announced in two separate blog posts today.
For Sheets, the update brings the ability to "add new and reply to existing comments," while the updated Google Docs for Android app gets the ability to see suggestions and comments when in the app's Print Layout view. "resolve, close, accept, or reject those comments and suggestions—making it simpler to move between their desktop and mobile devices."
Google also highlighted improvements to editing charts in the Sheets app on Android:
…if a user a selects a single cell and inserts a chart, we'll automatically expand that data selection to include the immediately surrounding cells. This will make it easier for users to create robust charts with relevant information. In addition, when an employee creates a new chart, they'll now see three recommended chart types, which we'll suggest based on the data they've selected.
And lastly for Sheets, users will start to notice the 400 new fonts Google began rolling out to Sheets on the web this week.
As for Google Drive, the web app gets improved organization with new smarter sorting in the app's 'Recent' view:
The new sorting experience removes the existing sorting dropdown options ('Last modified,' 'Last modified by me,' and 'Last opened by me') and replaces them with a dynamically-generated view based on the actions of the person using Drive. Items will continue to be segmented into time-based sections ('Today,' 'Earlier this week,' etc), and will now indicate whether each item was opened, modified, or uploaded by the user directly in the UI. The smarter sorting ensures that items acted upon by the user are more likely to be shown than items acted upon by other collaborators.
The updated Google Sheets and Docs apps are rolling out now.
