Filter Option: Add Filter Type For Content with Comment

When I'm collaborating with my clients, I usually have them comment on photos/videos, this way I can see what my clients think about the product. I would love to see Dropbox include an integration where we can filter the folder to show which content in a folder has a comment in it. 

 

Unless there is another way of doing this, please drop a comment; otherwise, I would love to see this feature.

    Hi PandaCo, wanted to circle back with an update for you. While not entirely what you're looking for just yet, we are currently rolling out the dynamic filters feature to users on our paid plans in Canada, the United States, and Mexico who are using Dropbox in English. When a folder include a lot of files with unread comments, it will surface a filter to let you filter down to just the files with unread comments. We'll continue to evolve features like this so keep sharing feedback - as it is really valuable to us as we decide what to build next.

    this would be huge for photographers/videographers.  We spend way too much time finding source files our clients comment on.  a simple filter for anything with a comment would save hours

    Hi PandaCo 

     

    Thanks for your reply! That's helpful context. We'll take this feedback into account as we look to further build out the filters experience.

    Hey Nancy, Hannah & Simon! 

     

    Thank you all for taking an interest in this idea! I really feel heard and seen. Sorry for the late reply. I didn't get a notification until Nancy nudged me! So thanks for the nudge! 

     

    Regarding the preference on filter by whether a file has comments on it, or whether a file has unread comments? I would prefer to filter files that have comments on them! 

     

    Thanks, Dropbox team,

    I hope to see this get implemented soon!

    Hey PandaCo - thanks for sharing this idea! I work on the Dropbox team and am exploring this. If you had a preference, would you like to filter by whether a file has comments on it, or whether a file has unread comments?
