Hey. That only works for things already in my dropbox folders, or new files from my phone. I upload zip files to dropbox transfer and send them to my clients that way because it's branded. I don't have access to anything I have uploaded to dropbox transfer on my phone. Only can see things in my dropbox folders. That's my problem with it, I cant see my past transfer uploads that I still have to send as a link once invoices are paid.

So I guess a workaround is to upload these items to my dropbox and then transfer a copy - I just didn't think my custom branding would show up that way. Just a little inconvenient that I don't have access to all my uploads, and I will have to re-upload to see things on my phone.
