Return to the original folder after moving files/folders

Instead of leaving the user in the target folder, return the user to the original folder where the move items came from. Especially helpful if, like most moves, files from a single folder are being moved to various folders.

    Hey Oldsilverado - thanks for sharing your thoughts on this with us.

    Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you clarify if you're doing this via the Dropbox mobile app or the website instead?

    Any additional information is more than welcome!

    Previous replies using the Reply button seem to have failed

    I Understand, this is on the Android app, running on a Samsung Galaxy Tab A9. I moved several times recently from a folder into several different folders and had to make my own way back to the 'sending' each time. Even a button after a move to use to 'return to originating folder'would help. 

    Hope that clarifies my request
