Google Drive has now officially gained support for biometric locks and unlocks with the iPhone and iPad Face ID and Touch ID systems.

The feature is now rolling out widely after being quietly confirmed last month according to Digital Trends. The option is now appearing as part of the Privacy Screen feature that is available within Google Drive on iPhone and iPad thanks to the version 4.2020.18204 update (via The Verge).
Privacy Screen essentially locks your apps and requires you to unlock them with Face ID or Touch ID whenever you try to open them.

As part of the new update, you can set the Privacy Screen toggle to activate itself when exiting or switching to another app from within iOS on iPhone or iPad. This means that even using the app switcher to and from another open app will require authentication to re-open Drive.
