I am using my smartphone as a wi-fi hotspot and have GPRS/2G/3G (selected according to location) to which my computer system connects for Internet access. Usually the speed is low, like 12 Kbytes/sec. I want to read documents, specifically PDFs in Google Drive. It takes some time to load or doesn't load.Is there a low bandwidth/mobile/basic-HTML view of Google Drive? This would be similar to forcing the desktop version of Google Drive to load a mobile HTML version.I use Gmail in basic HTML view and Google AdSense in low-bandwidth version. If there could be the same for Google Drive then that would be nice.
Google Drive low bandwidth or basic HTML view or mobile view in desktop
google drive
When I visit drive.google.com in my Android's browser, I'm redirected to drive.google.com/m.I can follow that URL in my desktop browser and do indeed get the mobile-optimized version of the Google Drive site.However, as soon as I click on a PDF file, I get the usual desktop PDF viewer. I don't see a way to force the PDF viewer to be a mobile-optimized version.
