Saving attachments to Google Drive

Save email attachments directly to any of your connected Google Drive accounts — even a different account than where the email is.

How to save an attachment

  1. Go to Gmail → Attachments
  2. Find the email with the attachment you want
  3. Click the Drive icon on the attachment
  4. Choose which Google account to save to
  5. Select a destination folder (or save to root)
  6. Click Save

Cross-account saving

This is where Remoscope shines:

  • Receive an attachment in your work Gmail
  • Save it directly to your personal Google Drive
  • No downloading to your computer first

Use cases

  • Organize receipts: Save purchase receipts to a "Taxes" folder in your personal Drive
  • Backup work files: Save important work attachments to a personal backup Drive
  • Share with family: Save photos to a shared family Drive
  • Archive contracts: Move contract PDFs from email to organized Drive folders
How it works: Remoscope downloads the attachment in your browser, then uploads it to the destination Drive — all without the file touching any server.

After saving

The file appears in your chosen Drive folder. The original email attachment remains unchanged — saving creates a copy.
