Description

Without a proper file sorting system, it can be annoying (and potentially confusing) to get the settings export onto the cloud. The option to send it straight to google drive would probably result in more people backing up more frequently, and would be more helpful for people who aren't as good at working with technology.

Research direction

Start by locating the maintenance settings-export flow and determine how exported files are currently placed in the downloads folder. Investigate the scope of sending exports directly to Google Drive, including the required user flow and backup behavior. Done means the export can be reliably saved to the requested destination with clear confirmation.
