While working with multiple Google Drive accounts, I kept running into the same problem:
moving files between accounts is harder than it should be.
Most tools that solve this are either:
Paid
Overkill for simple needs
Locked behind subscriptions
Confusing for non-technical users
So instead of searching for the “perfect” tool, I decided to build my own.
That’s how King Drive Cloner was born.

Why I Decided to Build This
Sometimes you just want to:
Copy a folder from one Drive account to another
Migrate files when switching accounts
Back up important data
And you want it to just work.
No trials. No credit cards. No unnecessary features.
I’m currently learning web development by building real projects, and this felt like a perfect problem to solve.
What King Drive Cloner Does
King Drive Cloner is a simple web tool that helps you:
Copy files and folders between Google Drive accounts
Handle large folder structures
Use Google Drive’s official APIs
Avoid complex setups
The idea is straightforward:
connect → select → clone
Nothing more than what’s actually needed.
How It Works (Conceptually)
At a high level, the flow is simple:
You connect your Google Drive account
Choose what you want to copy
The app handles the cloning using Drive APIs
Files are copied safely to the destination
I focused on keeping things clean and transparent rather than adding flashy features.
What I Learned While Building It
This project helped me understand a lot of things better, including:
Working with OAuth authentication
Using Google Drive APIs in real scenarios
Handling file structures and edge cases
Designing utility-focused UIs
Thinking like a product builder, not just a coder
I’m still learning, and this tool is part of that journey.
Why It’s Free
Many everyday tools don’t need to be expensive.
I believe:
Simple problems deserve simple solutions
Learning projects can still help real users
Indie developers can ship useful tools without monetizing everything
Right now, my goal is learning, experimenting, and sharing.
What’s Coming Next
I plan to improve the tool over time by adding:
Better progress visibility
Improved error handling
UI refinements
More Drive-related automation tools
This is just one of many small tools I want to build.

Final Note
I’m learning web development by building and shipping, not just watching tutorials.
