11 years agoHey Mikhail,
Thanks for your reply.
So it's not a matter of space, but of organisation - got it.
I would recommend to have a handy file organisation.
I guess that each of you have their own Dropbox account in your organisation, and that you have shared folders across the different accounts.
Keep in mind that you can organise your shared folders inside your own folders the way you want.
That way, you can organise your Dropbox folder the way you want, and then access your organised folders to find your files easily on your mobile device.
The file structure is the same on mobile than on the client to make your life easier (and to avoid panic when you can't find a file!!).
In addition, you also have a search feature on mobile that is very useful to find your files. We also added a "recent" feature on iOS, so that you can see the files that were last added or edited by you.
Have a great Tuesday!
