What Dropbox Replay is
Dropbox Replay is a review and approval tool for video, image, audio, PSD, and PDF projects. Teams can review video or audio together with synchronized playback, while browser reviewers add time-coded comments and on-screen markups without special software or a Dropbox account. Replay keeps comments and markups associated with project versions and can preserve unresolved comments from earlier versions. Comments can be exported in formats including XML, FCP XML, JSON, CSV, plain text, and Avid Media Composer text. Integrations include Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, Avid Pro Tools, DaVinci Resolve, and LumaFusion. Projects can be up to 150 GB; audio and video can be up to 12 hours long. Media uploaded from a local drive or third-party video tool counts toward Dropbox storage. Replay works in browsers on Windows, macOS, and mobile devices, and has a macOS desktop app. A free plan is available; the Add-On is $10/user/mo billed annually.
