Viewing dates when uploading media (photos & videos) in Dropbox app

Viewing dates when uploading media (photos & videos) in Dropbox app

Hey, 

So up until today, when I uploaded files such as photos and videos through the Dropbox App on i-phone, the app sorted the files with a date title.

Something happened and the date titles disappear (so when I choose what photos to upload I do not know when they were taken).  

I want to have the option to choose what photos to upload by date. 

OR

Is there a way to automatically name the files with the dates they were taken?

I’ve been reading TONS of threads about people having this EXACT problem. Clearly they aren’t all going to know I have requested this feature to PHYSICALLY go vote for it. But it’s proof that it is a SERIOUS issue that needs to be addressed and fixed. It clearly has enough people who have posted about it without being resolved. Some may have even stopped using this app because of it. I think that should speak volumes about how many people WOULD vote for the feature if they knew it was there to be voted on, had the time, or cared anymore about those of us still trying to hold onto the hope that we won’t have to switch to another app that DOES include this very necessary functionality.
Need more support?
