Dropbox has always made sure your files are on whatever device you need
them to be. It’s one of the best apps in the market for syncing and
backing up files and it’s saved lives on occasion with its version
restore feature. What the app and service aren’t used for is backing up
music. Audio files can be played from its mobile apps but the experience
is far from what you’d get if you could play music from Dropbox via an
actual music app.
Meet Jukebox, a free iOS app that can download music from your Dropbox account and let you listen to it in a proper music player.
Install Jukebox and allow it to connect with your Dropbox account (you
must have the Dropbox app installed on your device) . It will scan your
account for audio files. Once it’s found them all, it will ask you to
select which ones you want to download for listening offline.
After the files have downloaded, you can browse your music collection by
song, artist, album, or you can search for a song. Tap a song to play
it. You can create playlists and any time you add new music to your
Dropbox account, you can scan your account from Jukebox’s settings and
download the new files.
Jukebox essentially downloads the music files from Dropbox and doesn’t
play them directly from Dropbox itself. Once a file has been downloaded,
you can remove it from your Dropbox account if you want to free up the
space.
Feature-wise, Jukebox is basic. You can set songs to play on repeat
and/or shuffle, you can create playlists, and the app can of course
continue playing music even if your screen is locked. The UI is plain
and simple, and easy to navigate. If you ever considered Dropbox as a
good option for backing up your music files, Jukebox is the app that’ll
help you benefit from it all the more.
