Make folder available offline on iOS

I have been waiting very patiently for the ability to make folders available offline in the iOS app. It seems Android users have this function already. It has been asked for so many times going back ...

Good morning,

may I kindly ask - what does "soon" mean - is there any date you can share with us?

Thx

    Dropbox typically does not share release dates.

    That being said, I have the feature available on my iPhone (in both the beta and public releases). Dropbox does tend to roll things out in stages, so if you don't have it available to you just yet, I would say that it's likely not far off. And remember, this is a Pro/Business feature. It is not available to Basic accounts.

      Offline files are now sorted by name but I still want to be able to move them (change order on the offline list) Why you took away that option? I really need to be able to move files up/down the list

    Perfect! It works fluently! "Information at your fingertips" as they said in the old times. Thanks again
