PhotographyClient Communication & Experience3MediumPhotographer$ implied
Photographer's clients struggle to download photos from Google Drive on mobile devices because shared links open in a web browser instead of the Drive app, causing confusion and friction.
Google Drive shared links do not reliably open in the native mobile app, forcing clients to use a desktop interface or navigate a clunky mobile web experience to download photos, which is not intuitive for non-technical users.
