Finding text inside file in the Dropbox mobile app on Android

In Android, its not possible to find text inside a file and I need manually searching by scrolling through the file and wasting a lot of time

    Hey  sandroid8676 - thanks for sharing your thoughts on this with us and apologies for the tardy response.

    Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you clarify the type(s) of files you'd like to have this option on?

    In the meantime, you should be able to use the web instead of the Dropbox mobile app and utilize the CTRL/CMD + F shortcut to search within your files normally. 

    Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
