Cloud Integrations

Google Drive & OneDrive, without giving up your privacy

Connect your existing cloud accounts. Browse and manage from inside Clouvea. Files always travel direct — Clouvea handles only auth tokens and metadata.

What you can do with integrations

Browse files & folders

Navigate your full Drive or OneDrive folder tree inside Clouvea.

Zero-relay downloads

Clouvea fetches a direct CDN link — your browser pulls bytes straight from Google or Microsoft.

Direct uploads

Browser uploads directly to the provider. Zero relay quota consumed.

Cross-account search

One query simultaneously searches your Clouvea files AND every connected integration.

Full file operations

Rename, move, copy, delete, create folders — all pure metadata calls, no file bytes moved.

AES-256-GCM token storage

OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest. Your Google or Microsoft password is never seen by Clouvea.

Privacy Architecture

Your files never leave your devices

Clouvea is fundamentally different from every cloud service you've used. There is no Clouvea server storing your files. Period.

BrowsercloudYour Phone🔒
No Clouvea server ever stores your files

Direct. Private. Yours.

Traditional cloud services (Google Drive, Dropbox, iCloud) copy your files to their servers. Clouvea is fundamentally different — it's just software that routes your files from your browser straight to your own enrolled storage devices and make them available to be accessible from anywhere like Cloud Storage.. Clouvea never sees, stores, or touches your file contents.

Files never touch Clouvea servers

When you upload a file, it goes directly to your enrolled Android device — not to any Clouvea-owned infrastructure. We have zero access to your data.

Direct device-to-device transfer

Every upload and download is routed straight to your hardware. The Clouvea backend only manages metadata and routing — never your file contents.

Encrypted in transit

All file transfers between your browser and your storage nodes are encrypted. Your data is unreadable to anyone without access to your account.

Per-integration storage allocation

Each connected Google Drive or OneDrive account gets its own storage allocation from your plan quota. Files copied to integrations count against that allocation — keeping usage clear and predictable per account.

Expand Instantly

One cable. Unlimited expansion.

Attach external USB drives to any node phone via an OTG adapter. Your storage grows instantly — no plan upgrade required.

Works on any Android node with OTG support

Your old phone just became a multi-drive NAS.

Plug a USB drive into your enrolled Android node using a standard OTG adapter — no apps, no settings, no restarts. Clouvea detects it automatically and adds it as a named volume in your dashboard. Files stored on the USB drive are accessible everywhere, just like internal storage. When you need more space, just plug in another drive.

Plug in, power up

Connect any USB drive via a standard OTG adapter. Clouvea detects it within seconds — no restart, no configuration.

Multiple drives simultaneously

Attach more than one drive using a USB hub. All volumes appear individually in Devices and as upload destinations.

Browse from anywhere

Files on USB volumes are fully accessible from the web app and Android app — browse, upload, download, and manage just like internal storage.

No node slot used

USB volumes are extensions of one enrolled node. Attach as many drives as you like without touching your plan's node limit.

"Your dusty old Android is worth more than your cloud subscription."

— Clouvea Design Philosophy

Why not just use Other Cloud Services?

Because your data deserves better than someone else's servers.
