About Google Docs Offline

You're able to view Google documents and spreadsheets even when you don't have an Internet connection. This is particularly useful when you're on an airplane or train without wireless Internet.

Here are some important notes about using Google Docs when you're offline:

• You'll need to Set up Docs offline from your Documents List to start accessing your documents and spreadsheets without an Internet connection.
• Offline access is available in Chrome only.
• Offline access is available only for documents and spreadsheets. Presentations, drawings and other items from your Documents List are not available offline at this time.
• Documents and spreadsheets are only available in view-only mode. You must restore your Internet connection to make any edits.
• You can't create new documents and spreadsheets while you're offline.
• You'll need to allow offline access separately on each computer where you want to view your Google Docs offline.
