iPad app open multiple instances

Dropbox needs to implement the feature of having mutliple tabs open of different documents in the Dropbox app for iPad. I have been an active Dropbox user for nearly a decade now, but am going to transfer my files to OneDrive now since I can have multiple documents open at the same time.

    Hi Mr Handsome, are you able to open multiple files from the Dropbox folder via the iOS Files app?

    this is now possible using the files app. It’s a shame that Dropbox seem unwilling to implement a native feature. We need multiple instances
