For those using the Dropbox app on iOS will find a few new features, which will improve productivity while in the move without having to worry about re-syncing. More importantly, users will notice a new Edit button when trying to open a document. When tapped, the document will automatically open with the corresponding Microsoft’s Office app. Once you done editing, the file will sync-up back to Dropbox. In case you’re creating a new Word, Excel, or PowerPoint document, you’ll have the choice to save the file directly to Dropbox hassle-free.
The new changes are free additions to Dropbox, but Dropbox for Business will need a Office 365 subscription to use the new features. Currently the new integration is only available for mobile devices (iOS and Android), and a desktop version of could arrive some time in 2015.
