Native Windows 8 'Dropbox' app coming soon

This week, Dropbox has announced that their official Windows 8 application is coming soon.

The app has been submitted for certification in the Windows 8 Store and will most likely receive it within the week.



As with each new Windows 8 app, it will feature a Modern UI. The app "will support access to files, photos and media files stored in the cloud from the desktop but also on Windows RT devices like the Surface," says the company.

Aditya Agarwal, Vice President of Engineering at Dropbox, also added that the new app reconfirms the company's focus on making Dropbox available on most modern devices for easy sharing no matter what you own.

  I just realized something. The Win 8 store version of this would be so much less usable than the desktop version.
  
  I'm having a harder time by the day figuring out why to ever go into "Metro" mode.
