Box buys iOS app to improve its own |
May 23, 2013
Box has acquired an unreleased application called Folders, designed to give iPhone and iPad users a mobile front-end interface for the cloud storage and file management and sharing service as well as for competitors Google Drive and Dropbox.
The Folders technology will be deeply integrated with Box’s own iOS application, which will be upgraded with the Folders improvements later this year, Box’s Vice President of Engineering Sam Schillace said in a blog post on Thursday.
“When we saw Folders we saw a beautiful experience and set of design patterns that we had to bring to Box’s users,” he wrote, adding that Box’s iOS app will become “cleaner, faster and more beautiful.”
Folders includes a PDF viewer, a music player, document, photo and video viewers, a photo and video recording tool and the capability to create and edit notes.
