    Its currently in close beta. 

    If you are part of the beta you will be able to install it via a pop up on screen when you go to http://paper.dropbox.com

Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm anvdasa! Stay tuned- while I have no other info to share on how this will surface when we open up the testing, rest assured that we’ll notify you of the availability (i.e. it’s usually via email or Notification). Cheers!

Hi @Jane,

Ex-Dropbox designer here. Would you mind adding me to the Paper Desktop App beta? 

Thanks a bunch. 

Best, 
Philipp

    Hey there Fipo,
     
    I’m afraid that since this is in closed beta that we’re not currently able to add users to this testing group. You’ll need to have been invited to test out the beta through an email communication and see the option shown in the OP’s screenshot from your Connected apps page.
     
    That being said, we’ll ensure to update here when we have some more info about this!
     
    In the meantime, have a great day!

      Thanks @Daphne for getting back to me so quickly.

      I didn't want to pester them, but I'll try to ask the Paper team directly. Maybe I'm lucky.

      Cheers, 
      Philipp

        Hey 123esb, I hope you're having a good day so far!

        We don't have an update on this at the moment I'm afraid.

        We'll be sure to update you all here when there's some news to share.

        Thanks for your interest!
