Dropbox makes it easy to share files securely and effortlessly in real-time.
Share a link to any file in your cloud storage and control who can view and edit shared files—all in one place and included as standard with your Dropbox account.
File sharing with Dropbox is quick and simple. By just sharing a link, you can send anything—from photos and videos to zipped folders and large CAD files—to anyone, even if they don’t have a Dropbox account.
Easily share links and files from anywhere, using your phone, tablet or computer. And unlike email attachments, you don’t have to worry about file size limits—share files as large as your cloud storage space quota, starting at 2 GB and up.
No more manual checking—find out exactly when someone has made changes to a file you’ve shared.
With cloud file-sharing services from Dropbox, you’ll immediately see who’s added, edited, deleted, renamed, or moved an online file. Any changes made to a shared file will be automatically updated and synced for all recipients.
Shared file synchronization and activity notifications come as standard, with any Dropbox plan.
Dropbox cloud storage is a great place to help teams get organized and add files to one central location. It’s easy for team members to see where everything is, and which files are the most recent—and in need of immediate attention.
File sharing is the public or private sharing of digital information or resources. Common ways to share files include the web, removable USB drives, FTP servers, or peer-to-peer networks. The most convenient method used today is online or cloud file sharing or file transfer, a way to grant access to files and content from one user to another over the internet. Dropbox can be used as a cloud file sharing system and an online backup storage service.
It’s simple to send or share files from Dropbox with anyone you want—and they don’t even need a Dropbox account. Create a shared link from your Dropbox desktop or mobile app for iOS or Android and share that link via chat, text, or email. Anyone with the shared link can view and download the file.
Sharing a Dropbox folder with anyone you want is easy. Create a shared link to the folder you want to share, and then send the shared link via email, chat, or text to whomever you like. Anyone with the link can view and download the content of the folder you’ve shared.
You can share files and folders with anyone you like, including people without Dropbox accounts for file storage. Simply send them a shared link to the file or folder via email, chat, or text.
To share a link to a file or folder in your Dropbox cloud storage, simply hover over the file or folder you’d like to share and click the share icon (a rectangle with an up arrow). From here, you can select the access permissions you’d like recipients to have, create a link to your file or folder, and copy it for sharing.
