Hopefully, although the ability to sync will be gone, users will still be able to access their files In principle, as guaranteed by Dropbox through After a release, any documents the user has previously stored in their Dropbox folders will still be there.
Of course, to access them it will be necessary to do it through the Dropbox application. Or by accessing dropbox.com the traditional way.
Dropbox files will only be accessible from the app
Until now, users could use the Gallery, My Files, or DocumentSync apps to access their Dropbox files.Through a simple connection, had the ability to add, edit, and delete files from Dropbox And to do so, they didn't need to access the Dropbox app. Or connect through the web, because everything was synchronized to the second.
From now on there will be no other formula. So if you want to continue synchronizing your files with Dropbox from a Samsung mobile, you will have no choice but to download the application:
1. Go to the Google Play Store to download the official Dropbox app. Here is the direct link to download Dropbox. It is a completely free tool.
2. Once the application is installed, sign in with the account that you previously had connected to the Samsung Gallery or My Files applications.
3. As soon as you are connected, you should be able to see all the files that you have stored from your Samsung mobile up to now.Because the files that were uploaded from the Gallery or My files will be equally protected. You can still use this mode for a few days. But keep in mind that the service will no longer be available on April 1st.
