Following October’s update of its Android application, Dropbox today released a new version of its iOS app, which focuses on refining the photo-viewing and sharing experience. In today’s update, there’s now a new Photos tab, which offers a way to tap into a scrollable timeline of the photos you’ve uploaded into your Dropbox account.
As with the Android update, which preceded this one, the new iOS app offers a more visual interface for browsing through the photos you’ve uploaded – and, in particular, those you’ve added through automatic “camera upload” functionality introduced in an earlier release. At the top of the new photo gallery, there’s a link to your camera uploads section which will display your ongoing photo upload progress. Or, if you’re out of space, this section offers a link to buy more storage.
While the main section of Dropbox’s app still lists your folders and files, including those dedicated to “Photo” and “Camera Uploads,” the second button to the left now takes you to this new photo gallery.
