In addition to agreeing with the other comments about it not being clear what it does, you need to get a native English speaker to fix the grammar, punctuation and tone. The Privacy Policy page is fine, but the About and home pages need copy editing.
For example, on the home page:
"Download any URL from web directly to your Dropbox!" should be...
"Download any URL from the web directly to your Dropbox!"
"We will create a new folder in your Dropbox `My Downloads`, and have only this folder access." should be...
"We will create a new folder in your Dropbox called 'My Downloads', and we only access this folder."
There are lots more examples.
Also, it seems to me a major use-case for this service is to get around download restrictions. Say I'm at work and I want to download a file, but can't because of the corporate firewall blocking me. As long as my company allows dropbox, I can use your service to download the file. Same with bypassing censorship, etc.
- vanwilder77 13y agoThanks. I ve updated the corrections. I guess it also comes because of my Indian accent!
- onedev 13y ago"We promise, we won't screw up with your Dropbox folder." Should be "We promise, we won't screw up your Dropbox folder." But it'd be even better if you just left that out in my opinion. It creates doubt because you're stating something that is kind of expected from a service like this.
- vanwilder77 13y agoThanks onedev! I think the same, but some people here, doubted that - `what if it screws up my Dropbox`. And we dont because we respect your users Privacy. But just to make them feel secure, I had to add that line. But thanks, I guess people have to trust us if they use our service. I ve removed that from the Homepage.
- chrischen 13y agoI think the better solution would to be very explicit and clear about what your app does. Stating that it creates a "My Downloads" folder and just puts files into that folder, and nothing more, should be enough to assuage fears.
- vanwilder77 13y agoThanks chrischen! That makes sense. I have updated the message. To - "We will create a folder in your Dropbox `My Downloads`, and all your downloaded files will land in it."
- androidb 13y agoYou also have one in 'No limits on size, and its free.' Should be "it's" in this situation not "its".
