Dropbox might be the darling of the cloud file storage industry currently but that doesn’t mean the company is resting on its laurels, after it announced yesterday that its new Android application will ship with Ice Cream Sandwich support and a number of other useful features.
The good news doesn’t stop there, the Dropbox team are making available preview builds of the Android application as they go, with the latest iteration containing fixes for “a bunch of bugs”, additional language support and Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) optimisation.
