The file storage systems on the Internet seem to be gaining more strength and followers every day thanks to their possibilities. And it is that being able to save something on the Internet and access it from any device, anywhere in the world, gives a lot of play. Dropbox is one of its precursors, and now launches a new version of its mobile application and tablets with operating system Android
This is your version 2.1, with which you complete this cloud a little more (term used to name this type of storage system). Several improvements and a new function have been inserted in it to offer even more possibilities to the user. However, it is also fair to say that these new features do not represent a huge change from its previous version. Although I'm sure this update will be most useful for Dropbox fans of photography
And it is that the version 2.1 of this application has what could be called a loader automatic photos and videos This is programmed to store all photos and videos captured with the terminal's camera automatic and in backgroundIn this way, the user can continue with what they are doing, knowing that their files will be safe in one of the cloud folders, as long as they when connected to Internet
This function can be configured immediately after launching the application for the first time after updating to version 2.1 thanks to a tutorial guide of a couple of steps. On the first screen of this guide, another new feature is reported, and that is that it is possible to obtain up to 500 MB of extra space to save photos By continuing, in the following screen can be configure the charger Here, it is allowed to set the connection through which want to upload to Dropbox: just Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi and data plan In addition, you are given the option to start store all the photos and videos that are already in the gallery However, if you want to do a selective upload, you can skip this step, which can be found again on the screen settings with the name of Camera Upload
Another novelty is undoubtedly a great point in favor for users who want to store large files in their DropboxIt is about the elimination of the limit when uploading files Of course, we must always keep in mind that, in this cloud, the maximum free spaceavailable is 2 GB In addition, and, as it cannot be otherwise in updates, work has been carried out to correction of bugs from the previous version, and improvements in general performance of the application.
There is a small detail to take into account when updating this applicationThe specifications talk about a new permission being granted to Dropbox over password managementThis new security level makes it impossible for the user to move the application installation to the SD card , so it is imperative to have Dropbox installed in the phone memory The new version 2.1 of this cloud is already available to be installed on devices with operating system Android It can be downloaded completely free via Android Market
