Google Drive
Active for new uploads
1. Record in LemonFavor
2. Store in your Drive
3. Share from your Drive
This is the Google Drive integration inside LemonFavor, available on LemonFavor Pro.
Your recordings, in the Drive you already own
LemonFavor brings the instant sharing you expect from Loom, while every new recording stays in your own Google Drive.
Connect Google Drive in two clicks
No access keys, endpoints, or buckets to configure. Sign in with Google once, approve access, and LemonFavor is ready to store your recordings in your own Drive.
Every shareable link lives in your Drive
Once connected, new shareable links upload straight to a private LemonFavor folder in your Google Drive. You own the underlying video files, in the account you already trust.
For one person or your whole organization
Connect Drive to your personal account from the desktop app, or have an admin connect it once for the entire organization so every member's recordings land in the same place.
Your links keep working exactly the same
Share links stay on LemonFavor with comments, viewer analytics, chapters, and password protection intact. The recording is simply streamed from your Google Drive instead of LemonFavor Cloud.
Switch storage whenever you want
Keep LemonFavor Cloud and your own S3 bucket alongside Drive, then choose the active provider with one toggle. Existing recordings keep the storage they were created with.
LemonFavor only ever touches its own folder
LemonFavor uses Google's drive.file permission, so it can only see and manage the files it creates for you. The rest of your Google Drive stays completely private to LemonFavor.
How LemonFavor and Google Drive work together
Record once and LemonFavor handles the rest, from upload to a shareable link served from your Drive.
1. Record in LemonFavor
Capture your screen in Instant Mode or Studio Mode on Mac or Windows, at up to 4K and 60fps, with system audio and webcam.
2. Store in your Drive
When you share, LemonFavor uploads the recording to a private LemonFavor folder in your connected Google Drive, individually or for your whole organization.
3. Share from your Drive
Copy your LemonFavor link. Viewers watch through LemonFavor's player while the video is served straight from your own Google Drive after access checks.
Prefer object storage instead? LemonFavor also lets you connect your own S3-compatible bucket , or see how LemonFavor compares as a Loom alternative.
