How Do I Download Files From Dropbox

Need to edit a Microsoft Word document stored on Dropbox on your mobile device? No problem -- at least not if you're running the mobile version of Word.

Available as of Tuesday for both the iOS and Android versions of Dropbox, the new integration between Office and Dropbox taps into the partnership announced earlier this month between Dropbox and Microsoft. The new feature lets Dropbox users edit Office files right from the Dropbox app. It also allows users running the mobile version of Office to directly access Dropbox files, as explained in a Dropbox blog post.

Before the new partnership, users of Microsoft's mobile apps could store and access their files online only via OneDrive, Microsoft's own cloud-based storage service. Now the new integration opens up the process for Dropbox users who don't have OneDrive accounts. That not only benefits users, it also benefits both Dropbox and Microsoft by expanding the number of potential users they can capture.
