'Save to My Dropbox' option on shared link is gone
A day ago I realized that Dropbox removed in my opinion the best feature.
When sharing a folder with someone, you would have the option to make a shared folder, or to send them a copy.
The person would click on the link and get a option "Save To Dropbox" .
After he saved it he can do what ever he wanted with it, with out affecting your folder.
This feature is gone! This is not good at all.

Hi,
I am also experiencing this issue with the Dropbox app in iOS.
I would open a shared link with me and the "save to my dropbox" button on the upper right corner is gone. The only options I have are either to "save to (my phone)" or "export". The "save (a copy) to my dropbox" option is still available if I open the link in the desktop version/web browser.
Thanks,
Ina

Below is a screenshot of a sample link opened in iOS - the "save to dropbox" option used to be where the red box is.
Below screenshot shows that the same link, when opened on the desktop, provides the "save to dropbox" option:

When someone texts me a Dropbox link, I can no longer see the button that says "Save to nay Dropbox". How can I fix this?
