Problem Creating G Docs Offline on Fire HD

[GoodKnightss]

Hello Everyone!

I'm working on a Fire HD 10 (11th gen) and I am experiencing an issue when I create a google doc from within google drive WHILE OFFLINE.

At first, the doc seems fine when I work on it, and it appears to save fine.

But when I close the document I get the message "Can't retrieve file information. Check your network connection" -- and it is GONE! I can't get back to the document i just closed and there is no sign of it anywhere in g drive.

So my question is this: is this document (or at least its contents) stored in some local place that I can access to retrieve the content?

My secondary question is can I fix this problem somehow, but first I really would like to get back the several hours of work that vaporized in front of me!

Thank you!

To my knowledge Google Document files save and sync to the cloud, they aren't stored locally. I've never used it without internet access nor I ever found the files saved locally on my phone or PC.

I have a feeling your work is lost, but perhaps someone more experienced can prove me wrong.

From the Google help site, it look like the app can only view or edit existing files offline. The ability to create a file offline is only if you're on a computer: https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2375012?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform=Android&oco=1
