Can I hide a folder of photos from the Photos tab?

Hello all,

I have quite a lot of photos and other image files in my Dropbox. It is very nice to view everything via the photo option. But I have a folder that I want to exclude from being visible in this option. Is it possible to set it all up to exclude certain folders from being visible in the photo folder option?

    Hi MG S., and thanks for posting on our forum!

     

    At the moment, this isn’t possible, I’m afraid. Any photo/video you’ve saved on your Dropbox account will appear under the Photos tab. 

     

    However, since there’s already an idea about this, feel free to vote for it here.

     

    Let me know if you need something else, though.
