Dropbox's answer to Google Docs is now available on iOS and Android

in #dropbox8 years ago


 Dropbox Paper is now available on iOS and Android,  allowing users to collaborate on documents in real time. The software  first launched in private beta last year as Dropbox's answer to Google  Docs, but is now available for anyone to try. You can join the beta at dropbox.com/paper and download the app from the App Store or the Play Store. In our hands-on with Paper last year  we thought it was a "simple, elegant place to write" on the desktop.  "It eschews the clunky, Microsoft Word-like menus and toolbars of Google  Docs in favor of a Medium-like plain white page," wrote The Verge's  Casey Newton. Highlighting text brings up formatting options, and you  can easily embed rich media, such as YouTube videos and SoundCloud  files. On the mobile web though, it was much clunkier — so it's good  news that Paper finally has a dedicated mobile app. The release of Paper for iOS and Android is a minor milestone in Dropbox's difficult, ongoing pivot  from a file-syncing business to an enterprise one. The company has  wasted time and money on apps like Mailbox and Carousel, but for it to  survive in offices around the world, it needs projects like Paper to pay  off. Though given the relatively light feature-set of Paper, it might  also need to move a little faster.
