Google Drive isn\u2019t everyone\u2019s first choice when it comes to listening to audio, but it comes in handy when you need to listen to shared content. Now, thanks to the patch notes, we know that there are some nifty features coming to the platform. These new Google Drive features will give you more control over what you listen to. This was spotted and tested by Android Police.
\nThese new Google Drive features will let you control the playback speed of the audio
\nStarting off the new Google Drive features is the ability to control the playback speed of audio files. This could come in handy when you need to slow down any sort of verbal audio. A lot of educational and business material is shared through Google Drive. Having the ability to control the speed will make it easier to absorb what information you need to.
\nRight now, it\u2019s really hard to guess what kind of controls you will have over the audio. The patch notes don\u2019t mention the specific speeds you will be able to set the audio to. All it says is, \u201cYou can now play back your audio tracks at different speeds.\u201d
\nIf other Google IPs are any indication, you might have the same controls as with YouTube videos. On YouTube, you can adjust the speed by 25% increments. The fastest you can go is double the speed, and the slowest you can go is half speed.
\nNext, you will be able to scrub through the audio from the notification panel
\nThe next addition will let you control the audio position from the notification panel. This is a relatively new feature for Android. While the current version of Drive lets you see the position of the audio from the notification panel, you don\u2019t have the ability to scrub through. You have the ability to do this on YouTube Music, and various other music apps.
\nIt\u2019s hard not to see the charm in that. Instead of having to go into the app to adjust the position of the audio, you can do it right from the notification panel. This was omitted from Drive because it\u2019s really a secondary media player. You don\u2019t really use Drive as your primary media player, so there\u2019s really no reason to add any hardcore music features.
\nRegardless of this, these new Google Drive features are coming soon. Right now, there\u2019s no word on when to expect these to roll out, but since they are already in the patch notes, it shouldn\u2019t be too long of a wait.<\/p>\n
