I love it! My wife and I share my personal account, use it extensively, and plan to keep using it for so long as Dropbox continues to be as fantastic as it is. I've experimented with Box, iCloud, Onedrive, and Google Drive and I like Dropbox much better than any of these 4. Can you see why I'm NOT HAPPY about this setup? I liked DB when it first came out, but now it is not competitive! In fact, I'm one of the people who can do OK with 5 GB, but need to have DB on a 4th device, so now have to delete it on one or pay for 2 TB. The little extras besides the basic storage are nice, but not worth the money. And now I find out that the same 2 TB, if shared, costs another $80!! That sucks! Dropbox needs some much smaller plans between the free tier and the amount in a large hard drive. She didn't like having to shell out the already huge amount for the 'plus' plan of 2 TB for one person, when say 50GB would have been MORE than enough for her. BUT, you're right- it costs over $200/year.

My wife had to get a 'plus' account just because she has too much for the free account, but certainly doesn't need 2 TB!! So, I found out DB has a 'family plan' similar to the family sharing with iCloud.

To get unlimited linked devices, upgrade your Dropbox account.I absolutely agree with you! It is WAY overpriced in this market.

If you’re a Basic user and you linked more than three devices prior to March 2019, all of your previously linked devices will remain linked, but you can’t link additional devices.

Notably, the move from the company encourages users to opt for a paid plan. However, further devices past three won’t be able to be added from this point on.

On the bright side, any free accounts that had more than three devices linked before this change can continue using all of them. Plus and Professional users can link unlimited devices.īusiness users can link unlimited devices, but Advanced and Enterprise Dropbox Business admins can limit the number of devices that their teams can link.

However, along with the change there is a bit of good news for existing users.Īs reported by The Verge (via Liliputing) Dropbox quietly updated its terms for non-paid accounts:īasic users have a three device limit as of March 2019. Dropbox has today made a notable change for those using a free account, there is now a three-device limit.
