![]() This makes it possible to search through everything attached to a Dropbox account, even if it’s not synchronized to the desktop, while it also enables users to search by text contained inside documents - not just in the filename. The company introduced a new search feature into its desktop apps, allowing users to search for documents by clicking the system tray in Windows or or menu bar on a Mac. It’s also worth highlighting some potentially interesting use cases that are possible due to another update Dropbox rolled out a couple of weeks back.
