Dropbox update allows users to search within Word and PowerPoint documents
The companion app of the popular cloud storage service Dropbox has just received a nice update with the move to version 3.3.
Most importantly, thanks to higher fidelity previews, users can search within Word and PowerPoint documents.
Here’s the complete list of other changes:
• Support for larger animated GIFs • Smarter caching uses less data and disk space • Dropbox is better at opening back to where you were • Assorted bug fixes
A universal app designed for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad/iPad mini, Dropbox can be downloaded now on the App Store for free. All users receive 2 GB of space for free. More storage costs extra.
Dropbox Pro access, which gives users 100 GB of storage, can be purchased inside the app for $99.99 per year or $25.99 for a three-month subscription.
Before the most recent update, version 3.2 arrived in June. With that version, users can now set up their Dropbox account on a new computer, reorder their Favorites list, and more.
