I took a slow-mo video from my iPhone 6 Plus. When I uploaded it to Google Drive the video was without slow-mo. Why is this so? Is this a bug?

I have faced this issue also when uploading the slow-mo video on Hike and WhatsApp.

Slow-mo videos are videos recorded in a higher framerate. To make them slower, Photos plays them back at a lower framerate. This is nothing to do with the file and everything to do with the playback of the file. When you upload the file elsewhere, it's still in a higher framerate, but you're playing it back at this higher framerate. If you want to watch it slower, use Photos to adjust the playback speed.

  • There is an app for OS X that is called "Photos". You can adjust the video there and then export it for use. Commented Sep 24, 2015 at 11:08

Open in QuickTime

Check menu item View -> Play All Frames

QuickTime is really underrated.

What this does is basically tell the player not to drop frames, which it definitely will playing at 240fps, to satisfy a standard playback frame rate. It is off by default.
