About this app

This app is an automatic file sync and backup tool. It lets you automatically synchronize files and folders with Dropbox cloud storage and with your other devices. It is an ideal tool for photo sync, document and file backup, automatic file transfer, automatic file sharing between devices,...

New files in your cloud account are automatically downloaded onto your device. New files in your device are uploaded. If you delete a file on one side, it will be deleted on the other side. It works across multiple devices (your phone and your tablet). If their folders are synced with the same cloud account, they will be kept in sync with each other.

This is how Dropbox works on computers but not on Android. Two-way automatic synchronization should be an essential function of the official app. For whatever reason, it is not the case. Dropsync is here to fill the gap.

All file transfers and communications between user devices and cloud storage servers are securely encrypted and do not go through our servers. No outsiders will be able to decrypt, see or modify any file contents.

I can't write to the root of my SD card on Android 13. My wotk-around is to create a Dropsync folder on the card and in Dropbox. This paired set of folders is auto-synced both ways. -- On the phone I copy file or folder and paste to the Dropsync folder. It gets synced to the cloud. On the PC, I move it out of the Dropsync folder. It's gone from the phone's Dropsync folder after another sync. -- Reverse the process from the PC to the phone. It's automatic.

So far, I am pretty happy with the app. It does exactly what you tell it to do. And I mean exactly. Don't be careless like I was and use the Download Mirror option and also select your root of your SD card, where you might store your pictures from your phone. If you do, then you will have to figure out how to restore them! I mainly use it along with my setlisthelper app to keep the music files in sync with my Dropbox.

Great app that takes up no battery, or if it does you can't tell anyhow. Does everything it's supposed to . Scans daily , or if you download something through the day it'll scan , and add it to your Dropbox. You choose which files you want Dropbox to save , and you choose if you want it to delete it off your phone, or keep it on your phone as well , along with mirroring which it tells you what that is in the app. Just had alot of options, shows your memory left in dropbox storage too.

What's new

- Updated app to Material Design 3
- Improved background sync scheduling, reduced battery consumption.
- Moved "Instant upload" option from the app settings to folder pair config. Enable this option only where you need it. It has impact on battery.
