Dropbox for iOS Brings Desktop Setup with iPhone Camera and More

12 years ago

Dropbox has updated their iOS app with new features today:

Swipe to the right to ‘favourite’ any file (looks like Mailbox gestures are making their way into the app)
Set up Dropbox with your iPhone camera
Choose where to save files to from recently used locations
New language support (Danish, Dutch, Swedish, and Thai) and accessibility improvements

As for the setup with your iPhone camera, all you have to do is visit dropbox.com/connect on your Mac or PC, then point your phone at the screen, which shows a QR code designed like the Dropbox logo.
