We wrote an app that syncs any files or folders with the help of dropbox according to the schedule.
Now it can only upload files/folders from phone. But it will be able to download from dropbox also soon.

i tried it out with my Samsung Galaxy S and Darky's ROM.

Nice first Version!

When i sync manually, there is only a small popup that says: Upload OK. A Notification would be nice.
Why is there no End-Time when syncing should stop?

Sometimes, when go to Schedule Settings, change the time and go back. And then check the Schedule Settings again, my changes havn't beed saved.

Nice app. Could be nice to have "Sync only if charging" as an option.

I'm unable to select a folder on my HTC Thunderbolt. I can select individual files, but clicking "Add Folder" doesn't do anything at all. I stay on the same screen.

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

Having the same issue, no access to the Add Folder button. Is this a 'feature' coming soon?

To pick up a folder you need to install ES File Explorer, we're planning to add support of more file managers in the future.

To stop syncing you should remove file from the syncing list, did you mean this?

We will make such a possibility in next update, charger power only sync

Syncing starts at the Time set at 'Start at' and repeats every hour (or whatever is set), but when does the syncing ends?
Or do i missunderstand it?

Syncing never stops, until you stop it by pressing "turn off ScheduledSync"

2-way sync??

Thanks for the good idea.

Are u implementing a full two-way sync (including file deletion), or adding a download one-way?

I'm really looking for a full 2-way sync, that's currently missing in the Android space. If you are impleming a proper one, you could be in a very good commercial position!!!

Installed on my galaxy ace... android v2.2... helas...upload sync is NOT working... connection to my dropbox account is ok acc to app... why ? no error msgs...

edit: excuse me... it IS working but you first have to press the 'turn on' button before the 'sync now' is running... which is kind of confusing !

Pls add status message when syncing like animating the wheel f.i. as user has no idea what is happening..

Thanks for the nice app... and awaiting 2way sync..cheers

Force closing

Little bug :
Android force closing the application if I start manually a synchro when phone is plug in USB and it's mount as a mass storage.

PS : Great application for backing up all photos to a dropbox...
