Adding my two cents that this is annoying and it feels absurd that it hasn't been addressed yet.

Hello from March 2020. I can confirm that this still hasn't been addressed and I've still got notifications from 2013 when my old boss left and removed her shared folders which I just had to remove one by one. Again. *sigh*

    Still No Fix. I am using the desktop app and I have to go through each notification one by one on the dropbox app and "dissmiss notification". Amazing this hasn't been added.

      I received many files via a file requests...I've turned notifications off now, but I have about 200 notifications clogging up my Dropbox menu. Why, oh why is there not a way to DISMISS ALL NOTIFICATIONS ? This can't be that difficult. I know what they all say. I don't want to look through and dismiss each and every one of them one at a time.
