Transferring Messages from Google Drive to iPhone:

Take screenshots of the message thread seen Google's site, and keep it for reference. OR print the thread as a PDF document or hardcopy. See here: Take a Screenshot on your iPhone - Apple Support

Why to Take a Screenshot:

You cannot download these. So, if you can view these messages in Google from your iPhone, then take a screenshot of these messages, for record. It's all a matter of keeping a record of these. Once again, see here: Take a Screenshot on your iPhone - Apple Support

Android vs. iOS:

Google works off of Android, whereas iPhone works off of iOS. Both are different platforms, and therefore are not transferrable.
