You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

I'd like a change in the 3-line button in the mobile app.
I use Dropbox-App on my phone a lot and often switch between accounts.
About a year ago you switched via the 3 lines at the top left and you immediately saw the accounts.
Then that was changed to a screen with a SWITCH -BUTTON. An extra click! I didn't liked that.
Now there is another change with another extra click. This arose with the last update of Dropbox (november 2023) when the SWITCH - BUTTON disappeared on the Dropbox Basic screen in Android. Because it is no longer the same route (from Basic to Business and Business to Basic), mistakes are easily made and cost even more clicks and frustration.
So the Dropbox-app has become unfriendly in use.
I understand that the switch -button is now under ACCOUNT-tab. That's a Dropbox selling point of view. They want us to look at the possibilities of Dropbox.
Users want a quick app:
SO BRING BACK a good switching method under the FILES-tab!!!
Best solution option 1:
Switch via 3 stripes, top left (like years ago, before we got a personal space in Business).
Or option 2:
Return the SWITCH -BUTTON to the Basic screen.
