Google Drive improves search feature

It’s now much easier to look for the files you need on Google Drive. The new search feature of the cloud service lets you use things like words within files, file types, name of its owner, date modified, and whom files have been shared with. The feature is coming to Android, iOS, and the Web. On iOS, it even allows for deep linking, meaning you can even do the search right from the iOS search bar. Google is rolling this out over the next few weeks so just been on the lookout for the update.
