How to Connect Two Dropbox Accounts

Use this interactive demo to learn how to link two Dropbox accounts from your desktop app.

Quick summary

You can connect two Dropbox accounts on the same device by using the Link accounts feature inside Dropbox Preferences. This lets you switch between a personal and work account without signing in and out each time.


Steps

  1. Click the Dropbox icon in the system tray (Windows) or menu bar (Mac) to open the app.
  2. Click your profile icon and navigate to Preferences.
  3. Go to the Accounts tab and click Add account next to Link accounts.
  4. Sign in to your second Dropbox account when prompted.
  5. Click Continue to confirm and complete the account linking process.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting two Dropbox accounts on a single device eliminates the need to repeatedly sign in and out when switching between personal and work storage. The Link accounts feature in Dropbox Preferences lets users manage multiple accounts side by side, improving productivity for professionals who maintain separate Dropbox workspaces. This capability is especially valuable for freelancers, remote workers, and teams who need fast, seamless access to files across different Dropbox accounts without browser juggling or credential switching.
