Desktop app (with syncing) for devices with ARM processors

Desktop app (with syncing) for devices with ARM processors

I would really like to see a client for the Raspberry Pi, or any ARM based client that supports the live syncing that dropbox does so well.

Re: Dropbox client for Windows 11 ARM?

Hi @donawalt, thanks for messaging today.
 
The Dropbox desktop application for Windows isn't supported on ARM processors, so the app can't be installed there.
 
Currently, only the Dropbox for S Mode app can be installed on these devices.
 
If you need any more details, feel free to message back.

Gordon,

I'm with you. This request was made a LONG time ago. We're not the only ones.

In the meantime, you can use Bittorrent Sync. There is an ARM version for that.

Cheers,

Native Raspberry Pi Client

Can anyone provide any information on when (not if) there will a native ARM version of Dropbox for the Raspberry Pi. I'm surprised not to see more calls for this port. In addition to using Subversion for all of my source code control, I also also develop my source code within Dropbox directories. An ARM port of the Dropbox client would be a welcome addition to a device that many students use when learning coding.

As I continue to train my Son, I always tell him "keep everything in Dropbox! Including your source code".

Sorry, Dropbox rarely reveal any hints about their product roadmap or future plans, so there's no information to provide.

I'm kind-of shocked they haven't released a dropboxd ARM binary yet.  I mean, they are already targeting Linux, how hard can it be for them to recompile?
