Enhanced commenting, charts, and font functionality in the Google Docs and Sheets apps for Android Posted: 12 Nov 2015 02:31 PM PST Commenting is crucial to collaboration amongst your employees. This launch makes it easier for them to work together—even from their mobile devices. In the latest version of the Google Sheets app for Android, users can now add new and reply to existing comments. In the newest Google Docs app for Android, they can now see comments and suggestions in Print Layout view—and then resolve, close, accept, or reject those comments and suggestions—making it simpler to move between their desktop and mobile devices. This launch also helps users better create and edit charts in the Sheets app for Android. For instance, 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.            As a bonus, when your employees download the latest version of the Sheets app for Android, they'll be able to view the more than 400 new fonts added to Sheets on the web earlier this week.

Smarter sorting in Google Drive ‘Recent’ view on the web Posted: 12 Nov 2015 01:38 PM PST Google Drive lets people organize and access their content in a single, secure location. To make it easier for people to find and interact with that content on the web, today's launch introduces a smarter sorting experience for the 'Recent' view in Drive. 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. Launch Details Release track:   Launching to Rapid release, with Scheduled release coming in two weeks Rollout pace:  Full rollout (1-3 days for feature visibility) Impact:  All end users Action: Change management suggested/FYI More Information Help Center Note: all launches are applicable to all Google Apps editions unless otherwise noted Launch release calendar Launch detail categories Get these product update alerts by email Subscribe to the RSS feed of these updates
