Dropbox Update Lands With A Centralized Home Screen, Drag and Drop for iPad
The official Dropbox app has just been updated with a focus on improving productivity.
Easily the biggest change is the new centralized home screen.
Users can view their most important items including starred files and recently modified information. A gallery view will also preview large thumbnails instead of just a file list. That will definitely help when looking for photos or videos.
Currently rolling out to users, the new home screen will be available to all users in the next few weeks according to Dropbox.
With a streamlined file preview, users can comment on their own content. At the bottom of any file preview you can also view feedback of team members and view file activity updates. The sharing buttons has also been made more prominent to easily share files.
Anyone with an iOS 11 iPad will be happy to hear that the app now supports drag and drop. That will allow users to drag files from Dropbox to other apps like Mail and Keynote.
Dropbox is designed for the iPhone and all iPad models. It can be downloaded now on the App Store for free.
