Remove photo details and comments when browsing photos

aarong88 · ‎09-08-2020

I am using Dropbox on android. While browsing photos stored in Dropbox from the application itself, the photo details and comments would show up.

I understand you can tap on the photo, and the photo details and comment box would disappear. And you would be able to see the photo in its full glory. But when you swipe to the next photo, the next photo details and comment box would appear on the photo again. And again, you got to tap on it to hide photo details and comment box.

I highlighted this issue quite sometime back, and apparently it was rectified and now it's happening all over again.

This problem has not been sorted despite other users complaining here. And I even understood that they were talking about the continuous comment dialogue that pops up when viewing video or pictures directly from your app. But all the help and comments u guys kept suggesting refers to disabling it via the browser. This feature which I complained before was rectified and again came back up. The only work around was as one user suggested, to buy an app call "dfolio" in order not to experience the poor usability of your app.
