1/4/2024 0 Comments Neofinder on os x![]() Nearly every modern productivity app that supports Dropbox sync either defaults to the "/Apps" folder, or allows the user to choose their own folder, so it's puzzling why Neofinder on iOS seems to be stuck in the past, in regards to this commonplace configuration convention. But in 2016, it is very limiting (and some would even say arrogant) to not allow the user to choose the location to store their app's data in their Dropbox. In 2009 or 2010, it may have been acceptable for an app to force you to use a dedicated sync folder at the root of your Dropbox folder, since at the time you were just grateful that Dropbox syncing even worked to begin with. I'm super bummed that this app still doesn't support Dropbox in a modern way, like most other productivity apps do. The inability to flexibly sync my desktop catalog(s) with my phone via Dropbox or iCloud makes the iOS app effectively unusable for me. NeoFinder on the Mac is outstanding, so I am very disappointed that the iOS app still feels like it's stuck in the iOS5 days. ![]() But in my case, I want to point it to a Dropbox folder that I use for a work-specific NeoFinder catalog, that has a different folder name than my default "/NeoFinder" catalog folder that I use for my personal stuff. ![]() Not only is this very inflexible (and as I mentioned before, almost every other modern iOS productivity app that I currently depend on allows you to define an arbitrary Dropbox path), but it assumes that you want to use a folder named "NeoFinder". I continue to be super disappointed with this apps refusal to allow you to point it to a specific Dropbox folder, instead of a hard coded, inflexible "/NeoFinder" folder.
