Hey,
As the title says I'm trying to have thumbnails displayed in Finder on my Apple pad. The folder is a google drive folder. Is it possible to have thumbnails for that folder?
Thank you in advance,
Alexander
iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
The Google Drive App provides integration of Google Drive with the native Files App. What you see is most likely a Google App limitation.
As such, you might be best advised to seek assistance from Google’s support resources.

Perhaps you refer to the iPad’s Files App - as Finder relates to Mac.
From the Files App, you can select how your files and folders are displayed either as thumbnail Icons - or as a List or Columns - sorting by Name, Kind, Date, Size or Tags.
Ah yes, my bad. Indeed, i mean iPad's Files App.
Thank you for the suggestion. The thing is though that it is set to display as Icons. What I see is a placeholder icon for the photo and once I have opened the photo, a thumbnail appears. Preferably I'd like the thumbnails to load immediately without having to open every photo individually.
Ah ok, i'll ask google support then, thanks for your help!
You are very welcome.
