There are so many things that Dropbox does for me, it’s almost like it should be a part of the OS itself (which is probably one reason Apple wanted to buy them-good thing they didn’t, Apple probably would have ruined Dropbox). It’s where 1Password securely stores my passwords so I can get to them whenever and wherever I need them. It’s my fast way to transfer files from my devices to my Mac (and vice versa).
