Chromebook: use Dropbox and synchronize - how it works
You only need a few clicks to use Dropbox on your Chromebook. We'll show you exactly what you need to do.
Use the Chromebook with the Dropbox app
The Chrome OS operating system is based on the Google Chrome browser. So all you have to do is download the Dropbox app from the Chrome Store:
- Click the Start menu at the bottom left. Enter "Dropbox" in the search and click "Add to Chrome".
- If the app is installed, you will be redirected to the Dropbox page. There is not yet a separate app like Google Drive.
- Log in to the Dropbox page and use the cloud as usual. You can drag new files directly into the folders.
- Note: We recommend Google Drive as the cloud for your Chromebook.
