Why use Dropbox Paper

Dropbox Paper is a Cloud Storage solution which allows real-time collaboration on a document.
You can easily add lists, checklists, images (screenshots) tables and comments

Sharing and Permissions

As the author of a DB Paper document, you can Share the document with others, and grant them different levels of access; Edit or Comment

Edit, Comment and Share

This level of permission allows all who have the access to the document to make any and all changes to the document, including adding to, and deleting content. They will also be able to share to document with others.
When using Dropbox Paper for User Acceptance Testing (UAT), this is the permission level you will require to be able to log your issues and include screenshots.

Comment and Share Only

Without Edit permissions, those with Comment permissions can only view the content, and add notes in the Comment bubbles on the side of the document, but not alter the original document.
This permission is typically used when your feedback on an official document or mockup is required.
