- samolang 14y agoThat stinks. I've been using it on android for a while now and have had a great experience. It's really cool to be able to pull up a picture from a vacation you took ten years ago that happened to randomly come up in your current conversation.
- threeseed 14y agoDropbox WILL upload in the background for IIRC 10 mins as well as when you move around. https://www.dropbox.com/help/500/en https://www.dropbox.com/help/500/en
- VexXtreme 14y agoIt's sad that companies have to come up with these kinds of hacks just to get around stupid limitations imposed by Apple. I really regret buying an iPhone last year. I had been avoiding them for the longest time but at some point I needed a new phone and gave in because everyone keep touting how awesome and convenient it is. Well, maybe for an average layman but not for a power user. My friend bought an Android for half the price of an iPhone and his phone feels like a spaceship compared to this fancy looking but ultimately extremely limited device. Apple my ass.
- lucian1900 14y agoAh. I guess I wouldn't have noticed that on an iPad (I don't have/use an iPhone).
