Add a research document outlining the implementation of Google Sign-In with Google Drive backup to provide a simpler cloud backup alternative for less technical users.


Open in Cursor Open in Web

Research document covering what it would take to implement Google
Sign-In authentication with Google Drive backup as a simpler
alternative to the current Supabase/PowerSync cloud sync setup.

Key findings:
- Google Drive's App Data folder provides zero-setup backup for users
- Requires com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth + Drive API
- Much simpler UX (1-click sign-in vs 15+ setup steps)
- Can coexist with existing Supabase/PowerSync for power users
- Implementation phases outlined: basic backup, auto-backup, advanced
