Essentially, this means that when you use Dropbox, rather than store digital files on your computer locally, you store them on their computers (i.e., servers) remotely. What is Dropbox?Īt its core, Dropbox is a cloud-based digital storage service. Having all your loved one’s important papers stored on your computer, however, isn’t going to do you much good if when you need them, you end up being somewhere your computer is not. You can connect your phone to your computer directly as well, and simply drag and drop the files from your phone onto your computer. You can also text them to yourself and share them with various third-party apps that let you place them on your computer from within the app. Once they’ve been scanned, to move them onto your computer all you need to do is share them with yourself via email. All you need is the right app.īoth the App Store and Google Play stock several scanning apps that allow you to scan paper-based documents using just your phone. No longer do you need a stand-alone scanner or an expensive all-in-one printer-copier-scanner-fax-machine to do the trick. Today’s technology makes digitizing them as easy as taking a picture with your phone.
Should you need a document created by someone else, you can have them email it to you, then once it’s in your email, you can easily save it to your computer where it too will be digitally stored.Īdditionally, if over the years you or the person you are caring for has managed to amass a large volume of paper-only documents, they too can be digitized. Any document you create with your computer is stored as a digital file. As I am sure you already know, documents created using computers are inherently digital.
