Used to be great but now keeps bugging me every time I make a screenshot. Seems Dropbox is convinced I should store my screenshots in dropbox. Alas if this is not solved I have to part with dropbox. Apps are not supposed to irritate me.

Five Stars! Especially for Camera Uploads, which automatically upload the photos on your device to Dropbox ... to be stored, synced, shared, and there's a new web viewer. People who think Photo Stream is a place to keep their photos will sadly learn otherwise when they reach iCloud's limit and it starts deleting. Letting DropBox run Camera Uploads from all your devices is genuine storage, effortless. A terrific, reliable service.

Why does it say that Dropbox requires iOS 3.1 or later, when in fact it currently requires iOS 5.0 or later?

The best cross-patform sync/storage app there is. the developers are very active in updating and expanding the functionality of Dropbox, and now there's even a Dropbox for BlackBerry!
