Dropshare is a tool for uploading pictures, videos, screenshots and files of all kind from your iOS device to a hosting provider of your choice.
Please note: Dropshare is not free! Dropshare Pro (one-time In-App Purchase) is required to upload files to your own server (via SCP over SSH), Amazon S3, any S3 API-compliant service (like OpenStack Swift), Rackspace Cloud Files, Backblaze B2 Cloud Files or Google Drive. The app is free only for subscribers of Dropshare Cloud.
Dropshare supports Multiple Connections: You can set up different upload destinations at the same time and switch between them easily for each upload.
** Uploads everything
Dropshare is able to open files of any kind with its Sharing and Action Extensions. Upload directly from your favourite app like the Photo Album, or any other app that offers sharing functionality. Multiple images can be uploaded at once and will be archived in a ZIP file.
** Dropshare Sync
Synchronize your upload history including preview images across all your devices, supports both iOS and Mac OS X. Easily see all the uploads made from your Mac within Dropshare for iOS. Plus, synchronise your custom landing page across all your Macs and iOS devices.
** Dropshare Safe
Easily create access-restricted URLs for your uploads with either a lifetime and/or password.
** Import your connections from Dropshare for Mac
If you've already set up Dropshare on your Mac, just export all your connections to encrypted .dropshareconnection files and import them on your iOS device.
** Beautiful individual landing pages
Use a default template or craft an individual design on your own using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
** Choose your URL shortener
Dropshare supports URL shorteners as well - natively supported URLs (e.g. dsh.re), or configure your very own URL shortener service like bit.ly or YOURLS.
** Filename randomization
Optionally configure whether Dropshare should add a random suffix or completely randomize the filename before uploading the file.
** 1Password integration
Use 1Password to easily log in to Dropshare Sync with your account details.
** Screenshot extension
Dropshare offers a screenshot extension for your favourite browser: Capture the whole website and upload it right away.
** Image compression
Images can be compressed within 3 different levels prior uploading to save bandwidth and space.

Starting with Dropshare for iOS 2.0, the app will be offered for free in the App Store. To use hosting providers other than Dropshare Cloud, Dropshare Pro needs to be unlocked with an one-time In-App Purchase. Existing customers of Dropshare for iOS are eligible to unlock Dropshare Pro free of charge. TL;DR: Nothing has changed about the pricing of the app, the only difference is that it is available for free for subscribers of Dropshare Cloud. Please do not hesitate to contact us in case of questions about this change.
Please note: The App Store shows an "Unlimited Connections" In-App Purchase. That one is related to Dropshare 1.x and no longer required. The App Store might also show "Dropshare Pro" for free - that's the In-App Purchase for existing customers of the app (see above).
