Droplr: Screenshot & Recorder

please, take care of your app! it's outdated for a long time!

See only a shiny, positive green message “Error uploading Drop.”

This app was phenomenal. I think when it had the purple logo, one tap brought up five options, a second tap chose what kind of note you made, then you were in. Perfect, lean, no friction. For some reason they swapped it to be a straight desktop version where you have to log in everytime. Then you have to battle the desktop version on your phone. Now you forgot what note you wanted to write anyway. I told customer service this. They didn’t care at all. If there’s a solution I’d love to hear it. But the phenomenal interface disappeared for me.

UPDATE: Despite the response from the developers, the app still requires double log in. Super annoying. I’m a longtime Droplr user and I can’t imagine why for such a great service with such a broad customer base, they can’t produce an app that ENHANCES the utility of the service rather than DETRACTS from it… Dropping the star I added, plus one more because that’s the value I get from the app. Upgrading one star for the response from developers! Really looking forward to the next iteration. I love the service. I rely on it heavily every day. When it comes to sharing files with ease, nothing comes close. Drag a file to the little water droplet in your menu bar, boom, you are done. But the iPhone app is terrible. First, you have to login every time you open the app. And not once! But twice… After you enter your credentials, the screen flips and it asks you for your credentials again… Really bad. I cringe every time I have to send a drop from my phone…

I don’t know who is behind the boss desk now but thanks God the usefulness of this app and service is back !!! I use Droplr as my main tool for sharing docs to my clients. It was the tool that make Dropbox obsolete in my workflow. Then Mobile apps changed and it really start costing me more money trying to keep up with my clients than taking advantage with the new droplr apps! I was forced to use the website to do what I was used with the original apps. Then I managed to get back the legacy app for a while, but I seriously didn’t knew why they changed the app and what kind of users they were after. The frustration start growing, I try to use Cloudapp, then Cleanshot X, but none of them offer a all-in-one tool like Droplr. I can send zip files, pictures, files, docs, projects, audio files, everything just with droplr and suddenly they didn’t let you share anything anymore! Just pics or screen videos. They basically kill their own app until now! The app works great, and it’s back to business! I’m trying not to cry here. Whoever did this got my respect! Thanks for bringing back a tool as we designers need for our workflow! I wish you luck to gain back your reputation after all this mess. I wish you all the success in the world!

Well done guys. This is a very useful way to do screen grabs and recordings on my iphone. Huge step forward from the last version.

Through this version of the app, you can only upload and shortlink images. It isn’t possible to shortlink webpage URLs or even view past Drops.

Old app you could do relatively everything you could do online.

Why as a productivity tool, you would reduce features? At least old app still works.

I’ll just say this app should be an embarrassment to Droplr, but then again their entire platform seems to be teetering on abandonware. Aside from what most others have mentioned, I need to be able to upload iOS screen recording video clips, and it only lets me upload photos. I tried to get away from Google Drive and Dropbox for screenshot/screencast sharing, and since iCloud is just not up to the advanced sharing tasks I need (way too cumbersome), Droplr seemed great on the Mac. But sadly that’s not the case, and iOS app is even worse. Now I’m back to Dropbox, since it actually does what I need, but really don’t want yet another cloud service...sigh
