Syncing any folder on desktop, upload without moving to Dropbox folder

Syncing any folder on desktop, upload without moving to Dropbox folder

Hello, I have two suggestions:

  1. Syncing any folder on the computer with a new folder on Dropbox
    • I have some folders on my computer that I would want to stay synced
    • You should be able to have an option to select a local folder and a remote location to have the folder constantly synced up-to-date whenever a change in the folder occurs
  2. Being able to upload files without having to move them to the Dropbox folder
    • I have some files which I would want to upload to Dropbox, and the only options currently are moving it to the Dropbox folder, which is sometimes not possible, and the other option is uploading it through the web app, which is not very convenient
    • It would be best if there was an option in the right click menu, Upload to Dropbox, and you could set the folder its going to be uploaded to

Thanks for reading this!
