Dropbox StaffRe: How to Clear or Remove the Recent file list in mobile apps
Hi there!
I'm afraid that there is no way to disable the Recents tab from the Dropbox app installed on your iOS device. However, we love hearing feedback on any features that we release, so I'll make sure to pass it along.
Thanks!

So annoyed by this answer. Sick and tired of hearing NO YOU CANNOT REMOVE YOUR INFORMATION AND THERE IS NO WAY TO STOP DROPBOX FROM STEALING THIS INFORMATION. Sick of this lame excuse and "I will pass this on to th..." Well them make a way to remove the date that belongs to us!
Still hasn't been addressed nearly 2 years later. This is the type of issue that makes DropBox a poor tool when privacy is required (I do M&A work). Not to mention starting Dropbox with the Recents as the opening page, including showing deleted files, is a disaster in my line of work. My partner already went elsewhere and that's where I'm heading after seeing this response.
- You do need to add this. Or a default view when the app is first opened. If I go to Dropbox to share a file or view something anyone around me may see personal or confidential information including photos right when I open the app. A good default view would be the "files" tab. Not anything that displays photos.

- Cheers!
- This is a must - I would love the ability to clear recent files.
