Did you know... you can search for images using just text?
Hello Dropbox Community! My name is Lainie and I'm a Product Manager at Dropbox. Every now and again, I am going to post a "Did you know..." to 1) keep you informed of all of the cool technology that exists at Dropbox and 2) gather your feedback on how the features are performing. In today's, "Did you know..." I'll be talking about Image Search! Image search is allows you to use the Search Bar to search for the contents of the image using words to describe the image. For example, if you search for "cat" your search results will show files that 1) contain the word "cat" in the file name or body, AND 2) files that contain images of cat. No mention of the word "cat" is necessary! Pretty cool! If you haven't yet, I recommend that you check it out. Please respond to this thread and let me know... A) Did you know this feature existed? Do you use it? B) How can we make this even more useful for you? Have a great day! Lainie For more information, check out our Help Center Article on Image Search!Edit Photos and PDFs with Dropbox

You might have heard us mentioning the new and fantastic Dash, and if not, you can learn about it here. But just so you know whatâs going on, Dropbox Dash is AI-powered universal search that connects all of your tools, content, and apps in a single search bar. We want to make sure folks can sign up for the Dropbox Dash beta and try it out. With that in mind, we chatted to our in house Dash expert James, and he shared how to make sure your set up is perfect first time around. The Dash extension is helpful when you use it on Chrome or Microsoft Edge, but some folks have been getting a little stuck here: I canât add the Dash browser extension. How can I solve this? If youâre seeing this screen and clicking âadd extensionâ isnât working, it might be because you donât have Chrome set as your default browser. This isnât to say you canât have multiple browsers in use on your computer, but to finish the installation you will need to: Ensure that Chrome is your default browser Force quit the installation and restart the computer Run installation again Now you can set whatever you want as your default browser but whenever you use Chrome you will have access to Dash, and all of the very helpful AI abilities that come with it. And if you need any help, you can head to dropbox.com/support/email and select Dropbox Dash from the dropdown menu. Let us know how you get on!
