What does the term "linking" mean?
Am I right in thinking that the word linking means being able to use one and only one dropbox account across/among several devices?

Yes, you could install the Dropbox app and sign in to your account, which would link that iPhone to your account. You could also just use the browser on your phone to sign in to the Dropbox website, though the functionality is lacking compared to using the mobile app.

Thanks. So to be clear, if I normally use a computer to access the account via dropbox.com (not always the same one as I need to log on from different locations) and I then want to also use my Iphone, would I need to download the app from the App store onto my Iphone? Then I could see the contents of my dropbox there?
