If you have any number of docs and the app will stall on launch and not let you use it until it loads all files.
Compare this to the google drive app and you see the problem in load times.
I synced this app and then fully quit by swiping the app up. I also full quit the Google Drive. From launch to usable Google Drive took less than four seconds. GoDocs took 7 min 5 seconds.
That is dysfunctional. Sync is not needed for all docs. Id rather have it on demand. Succeed and you have the best advance feature google drive app. Fail to resolve this and you have the worst.
Settings:
Off - Sync on Launch
Off - Auto Synchronization
On iCloud Settings sync
Off - Background App Refresh
