Restore immediate backups in Dropbox.

For Dropbox Backup, return to providing immediate backup of my files. The latest update of the Backup app last year only offers 15-minute backup as the fastest method, but this means 14 minutes of new or changed files will not be backed up. It should be immediate, as it was before.

    Thanks, Walter! Because this is reinstating an earlier feature, not creating a new capability, I'm hopeful your developers can conquer and make immediate backup available again soon. Dropbox Backup is very useful and important! Bill
