    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey there&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/884234"&gt;@hidaka&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;- how are you today?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Have you by any chance updated your iPhone recently?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Moreover, do you have the appropriate software installed on your iPhone to open (and possibly edit?) those files to begin with?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This is not within my scope of expertise yet I'd like to help as much as possible so could you maybe try converting those to a supported format somehow using a 3rd party app or service?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Also, note that there have been other users asking for &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/help/files-folders/file-types-that-preview" target="_blank"&gt;previewing support &lt;/A&gt;for such files and I have already passed this as a feature request to our dev team as you can clearly see on &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox/View-org-mode-Orgzly-files-as-text/idi-p/276543" target="_blank"&gt;this thread here&lt;/A&gt; and &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox/Can-org-files-be-previewed-as-a-text-file/idi-p/279776" target="_blank"&gt;here as well.&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Let me know how this goes!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;BR /&gt;I'm using Dropbox on my PC and iPhone, and storing some Emacs Org-mode files.&lt;BR /&gt;These files have ".org" extension (e.g. "memo.org"), but its contents is just a plain text file.&lt;BR /&gt;Only the difference is extension.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Previously I could preview ".org" files on my iPhone directly, but now,&lt;BR /&gt;I can't preview and recieve &lt;SPAN class="st"&gt;the error message "This file can't be previewed".&lt;BR /&gt;Is there any way to preview a plain text file which extension is not supported by Dropbox?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi @Walter,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you for your confirmation! Yes, I've updated my iPhone &amp;amp; Dropbox app recently.&lt;BR /&gt;I was able to preview Org-mode files with Dropbox app as of December, 2017.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I've checked the threads you commented above and these are exactly what I want to request.&lt;BR /&gt;(sorry for bothering you, I should have researched similer previous posts in advance...)&lt;BR /&gt;I will watch over the progression of it.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Very frustrating that this feature was removed. I used to be able to edit my txt files on dropbox web pages. Please put this feature back as an app in your brand new app store. thanks,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>I also want to be able to open .org files, which are just plain text files. Changing their extension just so I can open them in the Dropbox iOS app is not an option. The only reason I want to use Dropbox at the moment is for working with .org files across devices.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1325335"&gt;@jamesrcole&lt;/a&gt;, thanks for posting on the Community!&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Currently, this isn't an option on the Dropbox site.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;If you wish, you can &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox/idb-p/101002013" target="_blank"&gt;suggest this change&lt;/A&gt; for others to vote on, so the dev team can look into this in future!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
