Automatically save edited files

[Gborr]

Could you please make it so that when a text or other file is edited within the DropBox app, it would automatically get saved when you close the editor? I often make simple text files on DropBox to take notes/write chapters for my webnovel on my phone, as this allows me to copy and paste what I wrote into a .doc file at home without having to actually move files around. However, if I as much as just brush my finger against the back button on my phone, or if the DropBox app crashes (it happened a few times when switching back from a call or other apps), everything I haven't manually saved gets lost. This can lead to things getting irrevocably lost, so I would really appreciate if you implemented an update where such small files would either get periodically saved while editing, or in case the editor gets closed by accident.
