Filesharing service Box has acquired the technology behind a French app called Folders, which is also centered on browsing and sharing files on the iPhone. Terms of the acquisition weren't revealed, but Box said that Folders would be a big influence on the next few iterations of the filesharing software. The company also noted that its iPhone and iPad apps will be "cleaner, faster and more beautiful throughout 2013."
Folders is still available as a 99-cent download right now, but presumably that app will be abandoned or replaced as Box integrates it into the main offering. Box boasts more than 15 million users at 150,000
