Can we have an option to add a new folder upon saving a file on the iOS app?
When saving a file or a URL on the DB iPhone app, thx for making it somwhat easier to navigate to when the user wants to save the file. (Though it could be better w options for sort by most recent, a...
Glad others agree. Many months later and I see a workaround on Creating a New Folder while still in Save to Dropbox that may be part of the latest iOS 14.2
If you try to save this or other webpages to iOS DropBox while viewing within iOS Safari, as best I can tell, you get the option to add a new DB folder during the save process if you choose:
Share Sheet
Options
Send As WebArchive
At which point you can either
save this web archive by
[still on] Share Sheet
Save To Files
Navigating up to the top level to Dropbox [whichever Account]
and then where in Dropbox you want to do
+ New Folder
and then Choose Save on that new folder
OR (particularly if you wanted to save to PDF)
after you make the new folder as above in Save To Files,
while still on the
Share Sheet,
go back to Options: Send As
Choose Automatic or PDF
Now tap
Save To Dropbox
Choose A Different Folder
[navigate to your newly created folder]
Save
**********************
Not sure if this works in other iOS apps other than Safari or selected text in iOS Mail, and it's still a few extra steps for the second option, but at least we don't have to:
leave the app/file we were originally trying to save into Dropbox;
go to the Dropbox app;
make the new folder;
and then go back to original app to finish the Save To.
PS - If you want Dropbox to fully implement + New Folder into the iOS Save process, they advise they need to see more upvotes and/comments on this thread, so pass this to friends/associates who use Dropbox.
