Google Drive now supported in Word for iPad?

So Word for iPad's latest update allows integration with Google Drive, but I can't get it to work.

I checked in 'Add a place' - I can select OneDrive, OneDrive for Business, Dropbox or Sharepoint, but no sign of (Google) Drive.

Under ". . . more" , and "Locations" there's a slide button to select Google Drive, but I can't see any effect.  Even with this switched on, Drive doesn't appear under any of the menus.

Is this a bug?

    I had almost the similar kind of issue on my device. I uninstalled and reinstall the app once the installation was successful it started working fine.

    Did you try to uninstall and reinstall the app, if you have not tried then uninstall and reinstall the app and check if it helps like mine.

    I have the same problem and I can't resolve it. I only can access Dropbox in it. Any news about this issue?

    Another update this morning and still no access to google drive.

    maybe Microsoft employees are not allowed to have a google account and so they can't test it ! :)

    I'm having the same problem.  I've verified that Google Drive is installed and I set the slide switch under Locations for Google Drive to on.  However, Google Drive does not show up as a place.

    Any help?

    Also having the same problem.  GD is working fine, is accessible to other apps, and I've tried restarting my ipad, nothing works!

    Please can you help?
