Alphabet navigation on ipad disappeared

The alphabet navigation disappeared on our ipad os version 16.7.2, dropbox version 362.7.  We rely on that to navigate the numerous files we have.  How do I get it back?

    Why would Dropbox remove the alphabet slider tool on the side of the files in their new version? That's like going backwards in technology and ergonomics. Please bring it back!!

    Hi, the scrubber function is VERY inconsistent and slow to navigate. I imagine I am not alone in the feeling. I would love to have the alphabet navigation back (please!).

    Agree 100%.  The new scrubber button is still imprecise, jerks around and is slow and hard to use.    My live shows suffer due to this☹️

    Please, Dropbox - - return the alphabet index.  We are desperate and begging.  PLEASE!!
