This wikiHow teaches you how to download entire folders from Google Drive to your Android phone or tablet. Although there is no way to download folders in Android apps, you can select individual files in the folder and mark them as available for offline use. If you want to move files somewhere or use them in an application other than Google Drive, download the entire folder as a compressed file (ZIP) by signing in to Drive on a web browser.
Steps
Make files available offline

Open the Google Drive app on your Android device. The app has a yellow, blue, and green triangle with the label “Drive”, which you can find in the app drawer. While the Google Drive app doesn’t allow users to download entire folders for offline use, you can select all the files in it to download at once. [1] X Research Source
- Apply this method if you want all your files to be uninterrupted in sync with the versions in Google Drive.
- Files that you have selected to be available offline need to be opened in the Google Drive app. For example, if you select a photo that’s available offline, open it in Drive instead of your device’s gallery app.

Go to https://drive.google.com using a web browser. Since the Google Drive mobile app doesn’t support downloading folders, you’ll need to access Drive on the web as you would on a computer. If you are not signed in to your Google account, follow the on-screen instructions to do so right away.
- Apply this method if you want to save the folder in its current state to your Android device. If you adjust the downloaded files, it will not affect the version on Google Drive.
- This folder will be compressed into a ZIP file, which you need to decompress after downloading. You can use the Files app with the blue and white folder icon located in the app drawer to extract files. If the device does not have the Files app, download it from the Play Store by searching for files by google .
