Google Docs offline sync status indicators disappeared after recent update

Users report that after a recent Google Docs update, the app no longer shows sync progress (spinning wheel, checkmark) for files being made available offline, and offline mode itself has stopped working reliably. This leaves users unable to tell whether their files are safely saved for offline access, which matters for anyone relying on the app without a stable connection.
