Negative review Off saving to phone memory only by anonym
Was really looking forward to this app and bought myself a 32gb micro SD card for saving offline. Very, very disappointed that the data can only be saved to phone memory. 2/5
Negative review You guys must be desperate. by anonym
Had 48GB of space, but on April 9th, it'll be limited to 10GB. By then, I'll have removed my files and will be ditching your cloud services. 1/5
Negative review Cannot save 2 ext sd card poor features by anonym
Unfortunately I've outgrown Dropbox, it was great early on when I used my device a little, but now im using it more the limitations of this app is making me move away to another solution. Unable to save to an external sd card is a major draw back and not being able to sync particular folders also... Bye bye.... It's been fun but need a little more from you now..... Victim of your own success... 2/5
Positive review Best cloud app by anonym
I love drop box because it is so easy to use. The auto back up feature is wonderful. I use it to share photos and files between all of my devices. I've never had a failure, unlike Google Drive which has lost my files or failed to sync properly. I also love that I can share files and folders with others easily. I seriously wouldn't know what to do without it! 5/5
Negative review Wow by anonym
I'm paying good money every month and they suspended my links for a high traffic I haven't even violated any terms of service. I'll give 5 stars after they fix. This. I'm also looking into other services like the one offered by Google 1/5
Positive review Looks great, works well AND supports Ubuntu, but needs removable storage support. by anonym
Just like the accompanying Web site, this application looks fantastic and works brilliantly... But an application like this is only as good as the service behind it, and this is where Dropbox excels - it has a native client available for Ubuntu! At this time I am only testing Dropbox due to the closure of Ubuntu One and the lack of a native Box client for Ubuntu, but thus far I am VERY impressed... In fact my only real complaint is the lack of support for removable storage (such as Micro SDXC memory cards). 4/5
Negative review Dropbox by anonym
I only had 342 pictures in my drop box and it said it was full. Any suggestive or info? 2/5
Positive review Functionality Request by anonym
You need to select settings in the export (save to device) menu and "show advanced device options", then you will be able to save anywhere, including the SD card. For whatever reason, that option is not defaulted to on. Still want save to zip, but at least I figured the save functions out. Might want to make that more clear. 4/5
Negative review Lost by anonym
I used the SMS Restore to save my text messages and I clicked to link them with dropbox. It saved, but I can't find my file with my txts! Highly upset right now! 1/5
Neutral review Decent app by anonym
It's a decent cloud storage app but it's really annoying that there is no "Cancel Upload" option. Seems like a no-brainer to me to include such a simple feature. 3/5
Positive review I really love this app by anonym
The only thing is that u can run out of space 4/5
Negative review Terrible by anonym
1) Check out the permissions we have to allow. 2) If you want to send a file to somebody they have to have dropbox to see the file. 1/5
Negative review Crappy by anonym
Keep sending me notifications telling me drop box has stopped it's doing so contanley I carn't even report this because it takes me of the app,,,I've had constant reports just trying to type this,, at least 15 times 1/5
Positive review My good times by anonym
Sometimes when I need to see light in this dark world or just want to lighten my day or just want to see a friendly I just use, this app people please use this app when I feel lonely or depressed I'll just drop a box...please do wanna simmer down 5/5
Negative review Important problem by anonym
Export is the most used when I used dropbox and you should be able to export multiple files at once! Need export all tool. 1/5
Negative review Screwed me over for promised space WTF by anonym
Just received space for Samsung tablet purchase then they took away the space claiming it was from an HTC purchase. Can't trust these ripoff artists. Wouldn't dare send them money. ***WARNING DON'T BUY*** 1/5
Positive review Countryboy by anonym
Works, note 3 and Galaxy 4, last update works, can now bring back to gallery using screen shot. 5/5
Positive review The best cloud storage app for Android. by anonym
It's quick (or as quick as your upload speeds) and seems to be fairly reliable. I'm not convinced my files are *truly* secure but it's good enough for storing non-private stuff like photos and other files I might need in multiple locations. It's not perfect - .jpg files are renamed to .jpeg when they're exported to my device, and there's no bulk export to phone option anymore. 4/5
Positive review New to Dropbox by anonym
Family introduced me to this ap and I love it. I'm a bare novice in computers, phones and aps. Don't know a lot about things others take for granted, but it is fantastic to upload my photos to Dropbox and find them on another device. Thanks for your work. 5/5
Negative review My pic by anonym
Why cant I not keep my pic on reg chip and drop box too it nice my pic to drop box not liking this at all. 2/5
Neutral review Bug Fixes by anonym
It's a fine app, but whoops... there goes another star. I only give 5 star reviews to apps that don't do idiotic "What's New" write ups of, "bug fixes and performance improvements". That is not a "What's New" description. It's simply being lazy and not explaining what you've changed. Maybe we don't want to just blindly put crap on our phones and tablets until we find out why the old crap was bad. 3/5
Positive review Great by anonym
I've not had any issues except ran out of free room but feel $9.99 a month is too much. Is the a smaller amount of GB for less money? 4/5
Neutral review Can't download multiple files by anonym
1)It's so inconvenient to not be able to download select and download multiple files. One by one for all the pictures and files I have? It will take forever. 2) Can't select multiple files at all. E.g to move/copy several files from one folder to another. Why can Mega and all the other cloud storage create an app that can have these functions and the most popular cloud storage can't? I'm downloading all my files over to Mega using 3 different apps, just to download a folder to Mega. That's pretty sad. 3/5
Negative review Gave me an error message "fatal error" and erased an important file by anonym
I've been using dropbox for saving very important files. I went to open an excel file on my android dropbox app and it flashed a message saying fatal error, after that several files were missing from that folder (they had been there seconds before, including several I didn't try to open). I went through the trouble shooting on the dropbox website with no success. So I emailed dropbox for help and their reply was 'we're sorry but we're too busy to help you'. Thanks dropbox, terrible customer service!!! 1/5
Neutral review It used to work. by anonym
It used to work just fine but when I favourited a video (starts downloading) it failed because I didn't have enough space. The problem starts after this. I can't do anything, it just says preview not available. Videos wouldn't stream. Files won't delete. I tried reinstalling and still the same problem. Fix this bug please. EDIT: Works now. Had to clear data. But this is a bug nonetheless. 3/5
Positive review Fantastic by anonym
I love the camera auto upload and the fact that original file creation days are preserved. This app and service just works and blows away Google Drive and Onedrive. 5/5
Positive review Awesome! by anonym
Just learned how to use. Was leary of using but now I use for lots of things! Had an sd card going bad so I backed my pics up fast! Awesome! Very greatful... 5/5
Positive review The best! by anonym
You can't get a better app for you're Android phone. I've used many similar apps and they don't come close. The auto upload feature really helps set it apart from the other's. Any picture or video you take is backed up along with what you already may have on you're device. You can't go wrong with this service. It's also so easy to share one file or multiple files with links to a file or folder. As well as shared folders. I like the new update. DropBox just gets better and better. 5/5
Positive review Awesome by anonym
I love the app. Theres just one thing that is bugging me. It doesnt play gif files. I have to download the file to view it. Other then that, its amazing. 5/5
Positive review Really great app but... by anonym
has a problem enlarging Word documents. Whenever you enlarge them, the view screen freezes and crashes and the app goes back to the containing folder. Please fix and I'll give it 5*. 4/5
Negative review Used half my cap by anonym
Definitely shouldn't sync pictures from Dropbox as a default setting. Even on wifi. No everyone has unlimited wifi. Used half of my cap for the month before I noticed 1/5
Positive review Well, *I* Like It by anonym
I've been using the mobile app for probably about a year now on several different machines, including an old Galaxy Tab 7.7, LG Optimus 4X, HTC One X, and LG Optimus G Pro. Have it set for camera upload, and access/edit files from it just about every day. Never had any problems (knock on wood!). Google Drive used to drive me up a wall, but Dropbox has been fine. 5/5
Negative review Dropbox service is nice, the app is... almost useless by anonym
I've been using Dropbox for a couple of years now and I love it. But I can't say the app is as awesome. It's missing the sync features that you would expect in a cloud sync service. You can manually upload and download files to and from the cloud, but it's missing options to setup automatic custom sync. It says it can automatically upload taken photos taken, but it will pick all media found on the device and upload it to the same folder, causing a big mess. Thinking about DropSync... 2/5
Positive review by anonym
I have had Dropbox for almost 2 years on all my devices. Have nothing but pure comfort knowing that all my pictures are backed up instantly. 5/5
Positive review has saved my life on couple of occasion. by anonym
with its back feature, I was saved nothing less than 3-4 times. can't stay without it. would like to have more free space. 5/5
Negative review THE .JPG BUG IS STILL THERE by anonym
Bug fixes? Really? Version 2.4.6.8 didn't fix this. 2.4.7.14 didn't fix this. 2.4.7.18 didn't fix this. You STILL automatically rename .jpg extensions to .jpeg when they are exported. Went from a fully-functional 5 star rating to 1. It's virtually useless now. C'mon Dropbox, please fix this persistent bug. Are you paying any attention at all? I said use .jpg but dammit it always changes to .jpeg 1/5
Negative review Total rubbish DO NOT DL by anonym
What a pile of junk. If I could give it 0 I would. 2 days to upload a 1 G file quicker to post it by snail mail. Waste of time does work on any device I have . 1/5
Positive review One thing missing... by anonym
Great app. A real life saver and extremely convenient. Not sure there is a way to email docs straight into Dropbox - fix that and I'll gladly give 5 stars 4/5
Positive review by anonym
One of the best apps of its kind. Indispensable! 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Works the best out of all the clouds but limited free space. I have more space on box and one drive. 4/5
