The Google Drive API for Android is temporarily for use of a local data store in case the device is not connected to a network. According to Google’s Developer Blog, no need to worry about failed API calls in the user’s app because the user is offline or experiencing a network connectivity problem.  Google explains that data stored locally in this fashion will automatically and transparently be stored in the Google Drive cloud by Android’s sync scheduler when connectivity is available to minimize impact on battery life, bandwidth, and other resources.

The API for Google Drive is available at Google Play Services. The latest release of Google Play services is now available on Android devices worldwide. It includes new Turn Based Multiplayer support for games, and a preliminary API for integrating Google Drive into your apps. This update also improves battery life for all users with Google Location Reporting enabled.
