How do YOU access Dropbox?

Hi Dropbox community - I'm a design researcher here at Dropbox. I'm curious about how you access Dropbox!

 

How do you access Dropbox: the website, the desktop app (for mac/windows), and/or the mobile app (iOS, android)?

  • For those you use, why do you use them?
  • For those you don't, why not?

Is there anything you wish you could do on one that you can't today? Why?

That “Date Created” option shown in the photo you posted… THAT’S what I need on my iPhone! Along with the other options. The creation dates & file info, etc used to work on my Kindle but I’ve since checked the app there and it no longer works like it did when I first subscribed to Dropbox on there.

Hi G.V. 

When you download and install the Dropbox desktop app, two things are added to your computer:

So aside from the Dropbox Icon, you can go to your File Explorer or Finder (Mac) where you will see a window with a map of your folder structure, which is what you are looking for. Hope this helps. 

Need more support?
