  • Yeah, how about putting back sort by date / sort by name again under the 3 dots on iOS? I'm really angry you decided to remove this feature. Such a simple thing and you thought it was a good idea to take it out? Please put it back.

Hi, I have the same request - would love for sort order to be respected by *folders* as well as files in the Dropbox iOS app! Feels kind of buggy with files being sorted correctly but not folders.

Finding video and photo in the camera upload folder is such a hectic. There's no label of what year and what month a video or image is being modified. I want this feature and know that many will cherish this feature.

I'd like folders and files to be sorted by date modified in the mobile app, not just files.

 

Thanks.

Would love to be able to organize files on the Dropbox app or online by upload date or date modified (perhaps even other options like file size or year created) as I'm able to in Dropbox Finder for Mac. Thanks for everything though guys, I've been a Dropbox user for years and it just keeps getting better.

I have been waiting for you guys to fix this for years. When I try to sort it, it just sort alphabetically, which makes no sense for such an airtight app.

Please
