Hands-on with the Google Drive for iOS app: mostly read only

At Google's IO conference in San Francisco today, the company released a Google Drive app for Apple iOS devices. Free through Apple’s App Store, Google Drive has interfaces for both the iPad and iPhone. But don't expect something bordering on Chromebook-level functionality from your Apple device.

I downloaded Google Drive onto both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S Right after the Tuesday keynote ended. I’m a heavy Google Apps user, and have Google Drive running on a number of computers as one of several methods of file synching, so I had plenty of content to work with, both that I had created and that had been shared with me by others.
