Your inbox sorts itself

Last release was about controlling what reaches you. This one takes care of what happens next: your inbox folder in Google Drive now keeps itself organized, and a file that is too large to analyze gets filed anyway instead of being turned away.

New Features

Your inbox folder sorts itself

Everything Filently brought into your Drive used to land loose in your "_ Filently Inbox" folder, mixed in with the files you drop there yourself. The inbox now has dedicated subfolders, and Filently keeps them sorted for you:

  • _ Filently Uploads holds the files you upload in the app.

  • _ Filently Email Attachments holds the attachments from your forwarded emails.

  • _ Filently Duplicates is where a duplicate goes the moment Filently spots it, so it no longer sits next to files that are still waiting.

The root of your inbox stays yours: the only loose files in it are the ones you put there. Dropping a file into one of the subfolders works too, Filently picks it up just like the root. And when you revert a filing, the document goes back to the exact subfolder it came from. Inbox Folder Watching Email Forwarding

Too big to analyze no longer means too big to file

Until now, a file over your plan's size limit was simply rejected: the upload stopped with an error, and an oversized file from your inbox or email went nowhere. That is over. Filently now takes a file of any size and files it based on its filename; only the content analysis is skipped.

The document card tells you when that happened. On a plan that analyzes files up to 50 MB, a larger file shows a note with an upgrade link, because Professional analyzes files up to 100 MB. Above 100 MB no plan reads the content, and the card says so, but the file still gets named and filed. Supported File Types and Limits

Bug Fixes

  • Choosing a folder: the folder picker used to announce "Perfect! This folder is empty" for folders that contain files, just no subfolders. It now explains that it lists folders, not files, so a full folder no longer looks empty.
