Create a new Paper doc from/with a Paper template file while in Dropbox online
Currently, a user can create a new (blank) Paper doc and create a new Paper template by selecting the white "+" (black background) next to the search field. It would make sense to add functionality allowing a user to create a Paper doc from/with an existing template here as well. With the recent changes to Paper, templates are not nearly as valuable, and this would restore some of the value as well as be a piece of very complementary functionality to the actions already present.

Sometimes my Paper document link redirects me to install the mobile app.
I don’t know if anyone cares, but using web access to Paper on my iPhone 16, I get an odd problem. If I click on a link I made to different Paper doc, I sometimes get sent to a page that says: "this doc was shared." And it says: "Get the App.” I may be making links wrong. The links in question start with a plus sign. I don't know what that means. Here's a picture.
Enable Emoji in file names.
I use emoji’s to help me find things quicker. I would like to add an emoji from the apple keyboard to the file folder name but when I click on rename and add the emoji it says “invalid folder name...the folder name contains invalid characters”. Here is an example I wish to change “Vehicles and DOT” folder to say “🚗Vehicle and DOT”Make your Electronic Press Kit with Dropbox 📂🎸🎵
