1 TopicWhat’s new this spring
I don’t know about you, but I’m absolutely delighted to finally see spring taking it’s hold. If you’re anything like us Irish, this time of year marks a turning point, as the dark winter months are replaced by longer, brighter and warmer days. Flowers start to blossom, bees are buzzing, the birds are singing, and it nearly seems like the whole country’s mood lifts. It’s just a blooming great time of year! We’ve also got a lot to be happy about with Dropbox, too. So, here’s what’s new this spring. Publishing content to social media We’re currently in the process of rolling out a feature that will allow you to publish content straight to social media from your Dropbox account. If you’ve been using Dropbox for your social media content, you’ll know that downloading - and re-uploading - videos and images can take up quite a bit of time so you’ll be delighted to hear that you will no longer need to do this as you can now publish posts on Facebook and Instagram directly from your Dropbox account. We’re also currently working on a function that will allow you to schedule posts directly from your Dropbox account and the ability to publish content to YouTube. You’ll need an Instagram for Business account and a linked Facebook account to be able to use these features. As this is currently being rolled out, this feature is not yet available to everyone. You’ll know if you can do it if you can see the “Publish” button. If you can’t see it, have a look at this thread to find out how to opt-in. Unlimited passwords Having somewhere to track and manage passwords these days is an integral part of life, otherwise you’re left trying to remember an ever growing and ever changing list of random words, not to mention the really hard bit of trying to remember which random word fits for which random account. With Dropbox Passwords, you don’t need to worry about any of that, it will keep all your passwords, logins and card details up to date and fully synced across three devices. It will even autofill your passwords so they are as safe and securer as possible, but that’s not even the best thing about Dropbox Passwords. So, what is the best thing about Dropbox Passwords? Well, that would be the fact that it is completely free and available to all Dropbox Basic account holders. So to boost your password security game and put your mind at ease, get started with Passwords now! Mobile search improvements If you’ve been using the Dropbox mobile app, you’ve probably noticed some improvements to our search functionality recently. If you haven’t, and you’re interested in learning more, here’s a very quick run down of what’s new. To start with, we’ve made the thumbnails that appear in your search results bigger, which makes it easier to identify the things that you’re looking for and means you don’t need to strain your eyes looking at those tiny tiles anymore. We’ve also added a number of new parameters and filters to help you find what you’re looking for quicker. Your search results will now include ‘Modified Dates’ and ‘File Sizes’. We’ve introduced ‘Snippets’ for keyword matches within files and there’s also the ability to filter your search based on ‘File Type’ or ‘Modified Date’ and you can now view search results in order of newest to oldest. You can find out more or leave some feedback on these changes on this thread. And finally We’d also like to give an honorary mention to one other thing that isn’t really Dropbox related but will have a huge impact on our lives over the coming weeks and months. That is, the sun. For those of you who don’t know it, it’s the huge golden ball burning in the sky. We haven’t seen much of it around these parts recently and we’re looking forward to seeing a lot more of it in the near future. We hope you’ll also get to enjoy it and soak up some lovely vitamin-D! Just don’t forget your sunscreen. If there’s something else that you’re happy about now that spring is in the air, or just in general, we’d love to hear from you. So please let us know what you’re grateful for by leaving us a comment below!6.3KViews2likes1Comment
