It'd be nice to have a way to locate duplicated files.

It would be great to have a duplicate finder or a duplicate alert - so if a photo file with the same exif data was uploaded, there was a notification. I'm sorting through old stuff currently and found a few duplicates and this would same me lots of time !

    Hi there, awurster​, thanks for posting to our Community! 

    I moved your reply to a separate, new thread since it wasn't relevant to the previous thread's OP.

    Since you mentioned duplicated files, I was wondering if you could take a look at this suitable feature that helps you find and manage duplicate files in your Dropbox account. 

    Want to check it out, and let me know if that would work for you?

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
