Which is a bit uglier, but that at least gives me clear and alphabetically-sorted albums in Unbound (and in other apps as well). Therefore, I switched to the following naming scheme: The app shows a small label with date information under an album’s cover photo, but that wasn’t enough to make it clear for me. Before Unbound, I had this kind of structure:īut, because Unbound can’t show section headers for parent folders, it meant that I ended up with folders called “11 - November” for 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013. The last point was especially tricky for me because it required me to tweak the way my folders are named in Dropbox. You can’t group albums by parent folder.You can’t point to multiple folders in Dropbox and unify sub-folders (as albums) in a single view.You can’t change the cover photo for folders.However, I do have some points and suggestions to make: Unlike the official Dropbox app and other clients, this is how I want to browse my collection of photos in folders. If two layers of sub-folders are recognized in the folder you point the app to, the one in the middle will be hidden from the browsing view: in my case, my Camera Uploads > Year > Month Folder setup leads to a view that shows cover photos for Month Folders. Unbound gets Dropbox folders and sub-folders right: you point the app at a Dropbox folder where you have sub-folders for photos, and it’ll show those sub-folders as albums with cover photos and thumbnail previews. The app is built for iOS 7, and it comes with viewing and sharing features that, right now, make it my best option to browse photos I’m storing on Dropbox. Unlike recent App Store trends, it comes as separate purchases for the iPhone and iPad priced at $2.99. Unbound by Pixite is a photo viewer for people who keep their photos in Dropbox. And I’d rather not talk about my brief, emotionally intense, and ultimately sad affair with Everpix. While I’ve been happy with the uploading/organizing process of this photo backup workflow, the experience of browsing photos was never great. I’ve remained loyal to a folder structure that organizes photos in years and months ( Bradley would be proud of me) and I still use Hazel and CameraSync to upload my photos. I’ve been keeping my photos in Dropbox for over a year now.
