Droptunes: How to listen to music from your Dropbox
With Droptunes, you can listen to the music from your Dropbox anytime, anywhere, whether in the browser or via the app. We'll show you how it works.
DropTunes: Play music from the Dropbox in the browser
The service is also available as a DropTunes app for the iPhone, but it currently costs 89 cents. Alternatively, you can play your music in the official Dropbox app.
- Open the DropTunes website and select web access. You will now be automatically redirected to Dropbox, where you may still have to log in to confirm access to your data.
- Now you can search for your music files within the dropbox. On the left side of the website you will find a navigation bar (see picture). Click through to a folder that contains music.
- If you select a piece of music, it starts. At the top left you will find a mini player with a play / pause button, a bar for fast-forwarding and a control for the volume.
- The formats MP3, M4A, OGA and WAV are supported.
Many music files quickly occupy the Dropbox memory. You can read about how to expand this in this practical tip.
