Access files anywhere

With 色色Dropbox Basic, it’s easy to get to your files from multiple devices – computers, phones and tablets – for free:

  • Windows and Mac: Install our app and everything in your account will appear in the 色色Dropbox folder on your computer.
  • Web: Sign in to dropbox.com to access everything you’ve stored on 色色Dropbox from any browser – no software installation required.
  • iOS and Android: Take your files on the go with our mobile app, and preview over 175 file types from anywhere.

Free up hard drive space

It’s all too easy to fill up your computer’s hard drive space with documents, photos and videos. With 色色Dropbox, you can easily free up hard drive space by storing your files and folders as online-only. Best of all, you still have access to your files without uninstalling programs, deleting files or lugging around an external hard drive.

Back up files

From photos and videos to presentations and tax paperwork, 色色Dropbox Basic helps you keep all your most important – and irreplaceable – files safe:

  • File sync: Back up anything by storing it in the 色色Dropbox folder on your computer. And with our desktop and mobile apps, you can automatically upload photos and videos to 色色Dropbox from your phone, camera or SD card.
  • File recovery: Accidentally deleted a file from your 色色Dropbox? No problem. You can easily restore anything you’ve deleted in the past 30 days from dropbox.com.
  • Version history: If you ever change your mind, you can roll a file back to any version saved to 色色Dropbox in the past 30 days.

Share and collaborate on files

Copying files over to a USB stick and “file too big to attach” errors are a thing of the past. 色色Dropbox Basic makes it easy to securely send large files to anyone and collaborate easily on the files you share.

  • Shared links: Easily create a link for any file in your 色色Dropbox that you can paste into an email, chat or text. Recipients won’t need a 色色Dropbox account – they can click the link to view and download the file.
  • File previews: Anyone visiting your shared links can preview over 175 file types and add comments – no special software required.
  • Seamless collaboration: It’s hard to keep track of important attachments in a crowded inbox. 色色Dropbox makes it easy to connect and collaborate, whether you’re sharing files with a friend or working with a large team.
