The Google Docs logo, for Google’s service for creating and collaboratively editing text documents, is designed as a flat blue sheet icon with rounded corners and a folded top-right corner; in the center there are three white horizontal lines resembling lines of text. In Google interfaces, this mark is used as the app’s main icon, and the name Docs is used alongside it — short for “documents”; it became established in 2012 when Google renamed “Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations” to “Docs, Sheets, Slides”.
Google Docs is a cloud-based word processor in the Google Workspace ecosystem, available in a browser and mobile apps. It lets you create and edit documents, share access via a link, work together in the same file in real time, leave comments and suggested edits, open and save Microsoft Word formats, and export documents to other formats. The service traces its origins to the web editor Writely, which Google acquired in 2006; it later evolved into one of the core document tools in Google Workspace.
