How to Add More than One Dropbox Account on Android

Dropbox is perfect for storing and syncing your file on the cloud. Dropbox built the idea of cloud drive as mainstream and got many people to backup their special photos and their important files, however when it comes to Dropbox Pro it’s still lacks some features. For example, Dropbox has a Selective sync feature where you can choose which folders you want to show on your computer. This will work fine if you have one account. If you install the default Dropbox app on your Android smartphone, you'll find you can add only one Dropbox account.

If you want to add and connect more than one account, you need to sign-out from the current account and sign in to the next Dropbox account. This will be not a headache if you need to access the other account once in a while.
