Uploading files to Google Drive stops when iphone screen turns off

I am trying to upload photos/videos from my iPhone to Google Drive. If the screen turns off due to inactivity, the upload process automatically stops and I have to start over. Is there a way to avoid that?

If you're doing that via wifi, try plugging your iphone in. It should remain connected.

or

Settings>Display&Brightness>Auto-Lock.... set it temporarily to "never".

At the end of the upload, set it back on your desired auto-lock time.
