Screen Overlay problem when uploading to Google Drive

A

AC Question

I am having some trouble trying to get around the screen overlay settings to allow me to upload new photos onto my Google Drive.

-When inside Google Drive, I click Upload then Images
-Inside the Camera folder, I click on the picture I want
-It asks if i want to all or deny Drive to acess photos, media .... on my device (first time using it)
-Press allow
-Popup saying Screen Overlay Detected, and I need to change settings
-Open settings (Apps that can appear on top) and everything is turned On

I have tried changing that gallery is off, but get the same result.

Which app in particular needs this setting turned off to allow me to upload photos?

Note- Drive does not appear on this app list

Welcome to the forums. An alternative would be to download Google Photos to your device and upload them that way. It still connects to Drive, but doesn't count against any of your space.
