How can I get the Paper desktop app?
Hi, I found this setting under Settings- Connected apps, but where can I get the Paper desktop app?
Thanks in advance!
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
It exists. I have it. It seems to be still in beta, but works.
It's pretty good. When you create a new doc it just automatically saves it to a default folder. And if you want to save it to a specific dropbox folder you can just move it either via the browser interface or finder. It can then be opened either from Dropbox Paper App or from finder.
The issues that have stopped me using it are that it's slow to open. It takes a few moments for the text to appear where as apple notes is instant. Also, and more of a nuance, the first line of text starts horizontally centred, rather than at the top of the page.
I'm not sure how to install it. It was just there one day.
All the best killeraesthetic

I can't believe this is still in "beta", is this something that is going to be released? I'm a new business user, and we are considering significant use of paper, but we will likely go to another tool if we can't get desktop apps. Is there anyway to get into the beta? I mean after a year, you should allow people who are really interested to get the software.
