Time Left in Sync has been removed from the desktop app

Dear Community,

until recently, my upload was always in minutes / seconds indicating how long the upload still takes. Since today I see that the upload is shown in KB / Sec.

Does anyone know how I change that back to min / sec?

Thanks!

I am having the same problem.  I am trying to get files to a client and I cant even see the transfer speed.  All it says is "syncing 3 files".  I have no idea if I have a fast or slow upload speed.  This is very frustrating and is killing my workflow.  Dropbox, please fix this.  Why on earth would it be removed?

Are you going to fix this?  I sometimes upload files that take hours or even days to upload, and I really want a time estimate!

Just by looking at the amount of complains in this thread it is easy to tell they screwed big time. 

It's a shame, already starting to look for an alternative provider and I bet they'll lose many customers just for removing a tiny yet crucial feature (and not providing any kind of technical justification).

Dear Dropbox, why this qestion marked as solved if its still not solved?

The reason this is marked as solved is bacsue this is a feature not a bug.

The Project Manager on this feature should be reassigned or let go, and the Dropbox team needs to own their mistake and put the time remaining indicator back.

It is ridiculous it has not already been rolled back.

Again, see my comment about hubris, and lack of humility. 

Incredibly arrogant behavior by Dropbox

I could understand if this was a free service like Google Drive however my company pays a sizeable subscription fee and expect to be consulted or forewarned when changes are made that impact the workflow of our remote employees. We run tight delivery schedules and the removal of this feature is impacting our B2B communication.

I also am paying for Dropbox.  Not commercial but personal -- still, I cannot understand why they would have taken away this valuable capability.

Dear Dropbox,

On behalf of the many many users who are complaining about the removal of the time remaining, or time left feature, I am requesting that you reinstate this feature in the next update. For so many of us, this was Dropbox's most integral feature.

I urge anyone who is missing this feature to post a 'seconded' below.

Dropbox, please do not mark this as 'Solved' until the feature has been reinstated. Also, please do not merge this with the other thread where us users have been talking about this topic.

Thank you very much for listening to your customers.
