Review summary

Dropsync is highly praised for reliable, bidirectional Dropbox syncing and is easy to use, with strong support for cross-device workflows (including Obsidian). The free tier is useful, while Pro unlocks multi-folder syncing and multiple cloud accounts and can remove ads. Main drawbacks are intrusive ads, a perceived single-folder limit on the free tier, and concerns about broad permissions.

Pros

Very reliable and bidirectional syncing between the device and Dropbox, with years of stable use.
User-friendly and easy to use.
Supports cross-device workflows (phone to laptop) and Obsidian vault syncing.
Free tier is fairly capable for casual users.
Pro adds multi-folder syncing and multiple cloud accounts, and can remove ads.

Cons

Intrusive ads in the free version, with ad overlays that are hard or impossible to close.
Free tier commonly reported as limited to a single folder (though some users note exceptions).
Privacy/permissions concerns: granting OAuth access to the entire Dropbox and broad device permissions.

2026-08-21	Ph*****	Was very useful for years, but recently has started trying to get me to install lots of other apps (eg cloud storage, joy wave digital, GTC Tracker). I'm looking forward for another equivalent application to dropsync now, I feel like I can't trust it anymore.

2026-07-10	La*****	ESSENTIAL app for keeping files on your Android devices available anywhere via Dropbox, or vice versa. Modest one-time Premium upgrade is well worth it. Pair a folder on your device with a folder on Dropbox, specify exactly what you want to sync, how, and when. Incremental sync, mirror, 1-way, 2-way, etc. Include / exclude folders / files, filename pattern matching, etc. Scheduled, manual, immediate sync. Multiple DB accts, & much more. Really smart app, dead reliable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
