Dropbox and Vodafone partner to keep precious mobile content safe and at your fingertips

Dropbox and Vodafone have agreed an exciting partnership which will introduce a new mobile-first service exclusively for Vodafone’s customers. The service, called Backup+, integrates exclusively with Dropbox, offering tailored new features designed for smartphone users.

Vodafone’s customers are downloading and sharing more and more multimedia files thanks to its fast and reliable networks. Backup+ will give them an easy and secure way to keep their mobile data safe by linking to a Dropbox account. Backup+ will enable Vodafone customers to seamlessly and automatically sync their contacts. They will also save all their precious things — photos, videos and more — into a safe and secure Dropbox account. Any files saved through Backup+ can also be simply and easily restored to any new device or accessed and shared through the Dropbox mobile application.

The Dropbox app will come preloaded on the majority of Vodafone’s Android phones, and will be promoted to iPhone users for download. Existing Dropbox customers will be able to sign into their account through Backup+. New customers will be able to set up a Dropbox account through Backup+ and get 25GB of free space for one year. A range of attractive Backup+ storage offers will also be available to Vodafone customers.

Vodafone will begin rolling out Backup+ to iOS and Android app stores by the end of March 2015, and customers in most Vodafone markets will be able to start using it over the coming months.
