Google drive client with only one purpose that is to stream video files unlike the official app, this app streams the actual files instead of transcoded streams.
This app is powered by Drive API, ExoPlayer and mpv-android.

This app uses https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
scope as it needs permission to get()
or
download the file in order to stream it.
Q. What operations does it perform using the drive scope?
-
This app for the most part only lists files granted which can be done using
drive.readonly
scope but it also needs permissions to download the file so the video player can stream it. So to answer the question, app performs two operations- List files
- Download files
