Options to change the file/folder icon in the Dropbox app
Hello, PLEASE please allow me to change the files icons to be relevant! I want easily to sort my files but with these blank blue file icons it’s makes organising files not enjoyable. I work with physical stuff, laser cutting, painting, hand crafts, CAD software, sculpting and a bunch of other things that are non computer based. Having icons or images that are relevant to me when scanning through files would not just speed up but give a sense of personalisation and organisation which helps my process when organising vastly different topics in the organisation stage. Thumbnails for files basically…… thanks!

Very good idea. espesially important for folder that I share link too and want other people to see informative icons. It would be helpful to have it to subfolders as well

alright Walt, apologies no I didn’t see your initial reply.
I suppose I’m referring to desktop folders but in general any folder would be great to have an icon. Here’s the default look on my iPhone.
cheers, let me know what you think.

Hey Dylan Hannah - thanks for sharing your thoughts on this with us.
Can you just clarify if you're referring to the desktop app, the mobile app or the website?
If you could send us a screenshot of the icons you mentioned, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
