Requesting a feature update that would allow org-mode /Orgzly files with the extension ".org" to be viewed as text files in Dropbox.
Orgzly for Android allows for creation and editing of org-mode files in Android, and syncing with Dropbox. Being able to view the files would useful, without having to open them in a text editor (e.g. Emacs).

I actually have another suggestion. Github now displays (renders) org files like they do with markdown files. See
https://github.com/thagomizer/examples/blob/master/blog/example.org
Seeing that a lot of my work I don't do version control for but insted simply save in dropbox and share (via a web link) with collaborators. It would be awesome if dropbox would do this type of automatic rendering as well.

Status changed:NewtoOpen What's the status on this? It would be so good to have .org compatibility with Dropbox Paper.

Hey there mfurmanek & cormacc - thanks for your suggestions!
I am actively collecting all feedback in regards to previewing new file types and supporting even more file extensions, I will be happy to pass your feature requests to our team for review.
Should there be anything else I can do from my end to help, just let me know. Thank you for your invaluable feedback again and have a wonderful day ahead!
Cheers!
This is an excellent suggestion. Even better would be to incorporate org-mode rendering in dropbox preview (may even already be supported by whatever rendering backend it uses?). I currently export my notes to html just to allow my colleagues to read them, but this introduces a disconnect with feedback / updates.
Emacs .org files are not previewed as text.
This means I cannot edit them on the web. It would be great if you could preview these as text.
