edit: I believe scrcpy fits what I looking for right now, although it views black screen for some materials (during navigation) it does give me a good view of the pdf. I doubt if I would be able to download the pdf unfortunately, but hey, this is the next best thing. Since I would need to login first, I might use Shizuka as suggested by the first commenter (not mentioned username incase they decide to delete acc someday).
I am willing to provide any information one could need to help me with this, so when I was getting my admit, the people concerned with this app told me I would be getting Pdfs of notes prepared by the faculty and videos too. Honestly, I know how to pirate those videos so that I can use them at any time, but since I don’t have a phone, I can’t view the content which is not available on website [pdf notes] and only available for view on android and it’s view protected and the freaking phone is small and I can’t hope to read from my phone [and they know that].
So, I was thinking if it was possible to break the protection which can allow me to view the notes on my linux laptop using some app. Or better yet, pirate the bloody pdf so I can take their print outs and read it in physical form. Please ask me any further info you might need.
No problem! Have you tried JDownloader2 to download the Google Drive link directly? I am 98% sure there’s a way to download the file even on view mode.
Also, can probably use JavaScript to download PDFs as well.

Who are you, why are you so wise in the ways of science?
Haha, I actually knew about the script but it’s somewhat not clear and you get images instead of text, which is good, but I wish I could download it with text so I can search math topics I want to study in the search bar and get it.
Unfortunately, JDownloader2 (which I installed after reading your comment) didn’t work for me(image) You reckon I should create a post anyway?

hey, no need to fuss about it ig
I mean, you have done enough
meanwhile, it didn’t work for me on android, I did read the reddit post you are referring to, but it doesn’t work for me. Again, thank you!
I have created another post, let’s hope there is a better way to download view on drive files. have a good day you!
