Idk, but the app itself is bad, that I can confirm. No directory structures, wth google? Especially because the old, beautiful design still exists, it's sometimes used as a file chooser, it's just not available as a standalone app. Well, FX is better anyway.
Smart Search will periodically index the documents and images stored on your device and run them through something resembling an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system. This would help the Files app automatically identify important documents like IDs, passports, etc., and highlight them in a new Important tab in the bottom bar of the app.There should be a way to schedule the indexing scans to run in the background without hampering your day-to-day usage, but there’s no option to schedule them in the current implementation.
Does this mean it will be easier now for Google to train AI and "tattle" on you if they want?
