Dropbox Announces Its Shutting Down Mailbox and Carousel

Posted December 7, 2015 at 7:49pm by iClarified
Dropbox has just announced that it is shutting down its Mailbox and Carousel apps. The company plans to integrate key features from Carousel into the main Dropbox app.

In 2013, we acquired Mailbox because we believed in the way it was making mobile email better. In 2014, we launched Carousel to create a new way to experience and share photos. With both, we aspired to extend the simplicity of Dropbox to other parts of our users’ lives.

Building new products is about learning as much as it’s about making. It’s also about tough choices. Over the past few months, we’ve increased our team’s focus on collaboration and simplifying the way people work together. In light of that, we’ve made the difficult decision to shut down Carousel and Mailbox.


The Carousel and Mailbox teams have built products that are loved by many people and their work will continue to have an impact. We’ll be taking key features from Carousel back to the place where your photos live—in the Dropbox app. We’ll also be using what we’ve learned from Mailbox to build new ways to communicate and collaborate on Dropbox (you can see early signs of this focus with Paper).

Mailbox will be shut down on February 26th, 2016, and Carousel will be shut down on March 31st, 2016.
