moving starred photos to a file

moving starred photos to a file

hello, 

i have spent countless hours selecting thousands of photos to print in a photo book but now unable to move these starred photos to a folder. 

 

How is it possible that Dropbox cannot do such a simple functionality.  i see others on the forum have asked for this but the thread has been stopped.

Any other photo sharing software allows you to organise photos in this way.   complete waste of time using this app if this can't be done.

thanks

Anthony

That's not the purpose of starring a file. Starring a file just marks it so it's available for quick access on the Starred files page.

Dropbox isn't a photo sharing service. Yes, it has some photo sharing features, but first and foremost it's a file synchronization service. In fact, most of the photo features that Dropbox had were removed years ago.

Who's talking
