I am a SugarSync user myself but I have a few friends who are die hard Dropbox users. The Dropbox team has been making more progress with their BlackBerry app and the latest update brings a load of bug fixes. Mauricio over @BBRocks snagged the change log:
- saving non-ascii texts results in garbled text
- handling of edge cases when running out of space on sd card and in device memory
- open-edit-upload usecase wasn’t working for devices with encryption enabled
- share link freezes for some users
- open-edit-upload usecase fails for files with non-ascii filenames
- “would you like to allow logging” dialog shouldn’t appear on first launch
- on rotatable devices, in image gallery, the displayed/cached image is smaller than screen size (shouldn’t happen)
- app should ask for permissions in advance on first launch
- app should support multiple third-party app associations for a given file type (e.g multiple pdf viewers)
- music/video stops when screen fades out
- user gets a “not enough room
If you don’t already use Dropbox you can sign up for their free plan which gives you 2GB of storage. That is perfectly sufficient for most document backups but will easily run out if you use it for images and video like I do. Check out the latest updated BlackBerry Dropbox version at this link and leave your feedback in this forum thread.
