About Dropbox
Dropbox is a file hosting service that offers cloud storage, file synchronization, personal cloud, and client software. It enables users to create a special folder on their computers, which Dropbox then synchronizes so that it appears to be the same folder regardless of the device used to view it. Files placed in this folder are also accessible through the Dropbox website and mobile apps.
