well, if you say so, but that's a non intuitive process. I did check dropbox home page and help pages from my fire HDX browser, but saw no mention of any such app. I did not log in via that route as I don't have my password memorised or copied to any text file on the tablet.. it's in last pass on the PC
but even if a downloadable & KF compatible app is there, the noob android user is still stuck unless they a) download
another app like ES explorer in order to locate and install the dropbox apk, and b) disable their
only install apps from trusted sources security.
All very interesting but somewhat off topic. the original topic issue as to whether a cloud enabled CC would be allowed in- app stores is still a "maybe, maybe not"
As for other cloud options, I don't think any non amazon apps are allowed to access the users' amazon cloud storage, so rule that out, and Microsoft's one drive looks to be shooting itself in the foot by forcing a link to windows 10 login credentials , before it can be used therein. ( and when granted that it allegedly screws up windows fast start by insisting on synching before user can get productive on their shiny new PC.
