While at the start it was just a synching folder, nowadays dropbox’s value proposition is:
- having a client in any mildly popular operating systems.
- having a fast and simple file sharing mechanism with co-workers/clients
- having high quality native apps, in particular on iOS, to the point that until Files came around Dropbox could be seen a make do file manager to switch files between application even locally.
Anything that doesn’t have full native iOS and android support is providing a different service. Let’s just call it another “desktop file synching” service and not a Dropbox replacement.
