How can I see the size of my folders in the app, to check which one takes up more space?
I just want to know, how big all the files together are. Even if there are other folders included in one main folder. So for example, when the Dropbox is nearly full, i can easily see, which one's the biggest one đ

Thanks for posting on our Community, earthlingJen22!
You can calculate the size of files/folders on your Dropbox account with these steps.
Let me know if you need further help, though.
Thanks but I meant in the app
Apparently this function isn't available yet đą

Ah, I see. If youâre referring to the mobile app, itâs not possible to see the size of your folders at the moment indeed (you can sort files based on their size, though, and see how much space each one is taking). To do this, you need to go to the âFilesâ tab and choose to sort your files based on their size, instead of their name.
Now, when it comes to the desktop app, you should be able to see the size of your folders/files the same way you do for any other folder in your File Explorer/Finder, and sort them accordingly, as well.
