On Android smartphones, only two widgets are available as of now. One is x-shaped with quick access icons for adding new documents, file uploading, search files, and camera upload. The second widget contains the list of documents you recently accessed.

Google Drive app with version 2.22.357.1 brings along a circular widget. Six circular buttons designating the various functions of Google Drive surround the app icon. All these icons are collectively present inside a spherical boundary. It pretty much resembles that of a 6-chambered revolver. Mostly, the quick access icons represent the upload from the camera, folder upload, and launch spreadsheet actions.
