selective sync on ipad?

"That feature already exists and does not do (nor is it intended to do)..."

The reason everyone keeps asking for "Selective Sync" is because they want their mobile Dropbox to act in similar fashion to their PCs, i.e. hide, or "sync" certain folders. 

Dropbox designed the mobile version to look similar to the desktop app, and that's a very good thing, that's one reason why we love it. But, because certain features are available on PC, people now expect to find them on mobile because of the familiarity, and because they're so useful. 

At the root, Selective Sync is not what mobile users need, but most of us don't understand how exactly Dropbox works at the root. So we ask for features in the best way we can describe them. If I go to Home Depot and ask for nails to put up my drywall, the employees don't send me away because that's not what nails are used for. 

So maybe the feature we're asking for is infinitely more complicated than finding a box of drywall screws, and that's something only Dropbox can answer. We do appreciate your responses to the community, not many companies do that still. But we're not all educated in proper technical terminology.

It seems that what we're are asking for is, a feature that let's us select what folders get displayed on Dropbox mobile. You can call it Selective View instead.
