Turn your Dropbox folder into a client gallery — no re-uploading
The Dropbox shared link problem
A Dropbox shared folder link works, but it doesn't look like a gallery. Clients see a list of filenames and navigate like a file browser. There's no lightbox, no browsing grid, no polish. Your carefully edited photos land in a folder view that looks nothing like a polished delivery.
How it works
Create a shareable Dropbox folder with view-only access, paste the link into Filolio, and share the gallery URL with your clients. It works exactly like our Google Drive flow. All photos stay in your Dropbox account—nothing moves, nothing uploads to us. You stay in control.
What your clients get
A browsable grid with a lightbox viewer. They navigate with arrow keys, swipe on mobile, or click thumbnails. Download buttons let them grab full-size originals. No account, no app, no friction—just your photos, gallery-ready.
Common questions
- Do photos stay in my Dropbox?
- Yes. Photos are served directly from your Dropbox account. Filolio never stores or copies your images. You control the folder; you can update it anytime and the gallery updates instantly.
- Do clients see the raw Dropbox link?
- No. Clients see your branded Filolio gallery—a grid layout with lightbox, download buttons, and your custom password if you set one. The Dropbox folder link stays private.
- Can I password-protect the gallery?
- Yes. Set a password when you create the gallery, and clients enter it before viewing. Password protection is free on all plans.
- Does it work with Google Drive too?
- Yes. You can use Google Drive shared folders and Dropbox shared folders interchangeably. Create galleries from whichever service works best for your workflow.
