DriveNest – Drive Analyzer

DriveNest — Google Drive Storage Analyzer & Optimizer

Running out of Google Drive storage? Most users waste 15–30% on duplicate files, forgotten attachments, and content shared years ago. Worse, many of those shared files remain publicly accessible long after they should — a hidden security risk.

DriveNest scans your Drive read-only (nothing is ever modified or deleted) and gives you clear, actionable insights to free up Google Drive space, find duplicates, and audit who still has access to your files.

Visual Storage Mapping
Interactive sunburst chart reveals which folders consume the most space at a glance. Tap to drill into any folder, long-press for details. Outer rings show deeper folders; arc size reflects storage used — far more intuitive than list-only tools.

Duplicate File Finder & Content-Aware Duplicate Detection
Finds duplicates by MD5 hash (actual file content), not just filenames — renamed copies are caught too. Distinguishes real waste from structural duplication. See exactly how much space you can reclaim and where every copy lives.

Smart Cleanup Advisor
Ranks cleanup targets by combining file size, staleness, duplicate burden, and sharing risk into a single actionable score. A bubble chart shows each category with its potential space savings so you know where to start.

Built-In Security Audit
Flags shared, overshared, publicly accessible, orphaned, and stale files with a 0–100 security score. Most people share files once and forget — DriveNest helps you spot potential risks without a separate tool.

Storage Trends Over Time
Save and compare multiple scans to track how your Drive grows, spot storage spikes, and see duplicate accumulation trends. Activity charts reveal file creation and modification patterns.

Incremental Rescans
After the first full scan, subsequent scans fetch only changes — completing in seconds instead of minutes.

Professional Reports
Generate customizable multi-section PDF storage reports to share with your team or IT department. CSV export available for raw data analysis.

Encrypted Backup & Restore
AES-256 encrypted scan backups let you preserve your analysis history across devices.

Multi-Account Management
Keep scans separated per Google account. Power users with multiple Drives get clean, independent analytics.

Customizable Interface
Reorder or hide navigation tabs, choose your color theme, and rearrange dashboard panels to match your workflow.

Privacy-First Design
Requests only read-only Drive metadata: file names, sizes, dates, sharing permissions, and folder structure. No file content is ever read, downloaded, or accessed. No data is sent to external servers. Everything stays on your device.
