Is "Dropbox Saver" available, in Swift or Obj-C for iOS?
I can't seem to find iOS Swift/Obj-C Dropbox Saver use in the SwiftyDropbox documentation, only for HTML (though it was originally planned to be coming soon).
What I would like is to simply let the user choose a "save to" destination in their own Dropbox folder (from inside my app) and not concern myself with applying for production status. The "applying for production" process seems a little risky for launching an iOS app, e.g. if the app should "take off" would production status be approved quick enough? What if isn't granted? etc. Combining these "if" scenarios with the app review process elsewhere compounds risk and in the worst case scenario could result in a bad end-user experience (and poor app/developer reputation).
Currently I'm successfully using SwiftyDropbox in app (under development), but will probably require production approval. Does anyone out there with some experience with this have some advice? What is the best way?
We don't currently have a native Saver for iOS, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
However, note that the official Dropbox app registers as an iOS "Document Picker" with the following modes, if you can/want to use that:
UIDocumentPickerModeImport
UIDocumentPickerModeExportToService
If you're using the Dropbox API though (e.g., via SwiftyDropbox) and want to go through the production review before releasing to any users, you can request an "early review". You can find more information on that here:
