#Drop box sync android install
Most Dropbox users aren’t using Macs at all, so iCloud is out of the question (actually, iCloud will work with Windows if users install the iCloud Control Panel) and Google+ is still just getting started (yes, the service has lots of users signed up, but how many of them are using it and have the app installed on their phone?).ĭropbox also does a couple of things that Google+ doesn’t: for one, it’ll automatically sync the full-sized version of your images - Google+ sync will downscale images to 2048px at their longest edge. The first thing they pointed out is that there are a lot of people out there who aren’t using either of those services. I know what you’re thinking, because it’s the first thing I said to CEO Drew Houston and Product Manager Aseem Sood: “err, don’t iCloud and Google+ already let you do this?” Snap a few photos on your phone, and, without having to hook up any wires, they’ll be on your computer within a minute or two.
And to get things started, they’re launching a new version of their Desktop and Android clients that’ll automatically upload your photos to your Dropbox account. Their first solution to one of these hidden problems? Helping you keep all of your photos, from all of your devices, in one place.
Today, we’re getting our first taste of what’s next, and what cofounder and CEO Drew Houston calls Dropbox’s mission to solve all of the “hidden problems” that people have with technology, many of which we’ve simply become accustomed to dealing with. Because while Dropbox is totally awesome (I use it every day), at this point people see it as a convenient way to sync their files between computers - which it already does pretty well. The raise had been rumored for months so it didn’t come as a huge surprise, but it still raised plenty of eyebrows. Last year, Dropbox raised a whopping $250 million funding round at a valuation in the ballpark of $4 billion.
