How to Clear or Remove the Recent file list in mobile apps

So you're the censorship monkey now, too, Rich?

There was no profanity in that statement whatsoever, just pointing out Justin's actual situation - and it isn't as if you can delete the emails that everyone got when I posted it.

You're correct, there was no profanity in that statement, but it implied an act that doesn't need to be discussed on these forums, just as the last (now deleted) line in your most recent reply did as well.

I'll ask you to keep the discussions on topic. If you continue making such comments your posting privileges could be revoked. Thank you.

You're right, there was a direct implication in both statements, but it is an accurate one. 

I don't like the recents feature because it shows private pictures I've view recently. If I have camera upload on and take some risque pictures for or with my SO I don't want those flashing up on the screen. You guys should offer an option to turn it off, or at least exclude some folders from ever showing up there... right now I have to keep a passcode on my app so it doesn't flash up pics I don't want to share at work or when my kids are around.

Seriously, think about this before you make a feature mandatory.

Can we change the name from Dropbox to Sovjetbox? I think that would resolve the confusion caused by the idea that this company would even try to listen to it's customers...

This is really a poorly designed feature and my problem is compounded by the fact that I am an attorney (I've heard all the jokes, thank you).  I work on confidential, personal and sometimes very graphic things (police crime scene photos, autopsy photos, reports, etc...)  I also use dropbox to save personal photos of my family.  MORE THAN ONCE my wife has complained about logging in to see a family photo or vid, only to have her (and on some occasions, the kids) see a thumbnail of a dead body (or worse).  This should be an absolute no-brainer for privacy and common sense reasons.  

PS - this needs to be changed for mobile and desktop versions.

That's fine rich, I'll vote with my feet and move to a company that actually listens (and or acknowledges) issues for their customers.

Rich, when you need to quote the 'terms' regarding refunds you have lost the argument and I suspect a few more clients.

Well congratulations, my nexus tablet now defaults to files (after a dropbox update) as does my ipad  Provided you close app when in files, the next time you open, yippee it opens in FILES !!.

Thankyou
