This change will take place for UCSC on June 3, 2019 for Drive on the web.
This is simply a name change and will not impact Team Drives functionality. Users have expressed that they use Team Drives for a lot more than sharing within teams, so “shared drives” makes it easier to understand how you could use them.
In Google Drive, Team Drives is located in the left hand side panel. On June 3, it will be renamed to “Shared drives.” There is no action you need to take. You will automatically see the new name in June.
Additional Details:
- On mobile, Android users will see this change beginning on May 28, 2019. iOS users will see this change beginning on May 21, 2019.
- This change will impact all G Suite editions.
