42 TopicsClip webpages and notes to Dropbox
It would be a nice feature to have to be able to clip webpages, articles and notes to a designated folder in my dropbox account. Evernote is a good clipping tool, but its storage and recall functions are limited. It would be nice to clip a whole web page, with images, as well as a just the basics, even if it is a text file.176Views0likes2CommentsAllow us to show/hide sidebar items on the website
I love new features, don't get me wrong, but not at the cost of them cluttering up the UI with features I rarely (or never) use. The sidebar on the web keeps growing with no way to tame it. How about implementing a Gmail-style menu system where you can bury menu items you don't want to see, but can still access if need-be... this way the UI can be more tuned to how an individual uses it?55KViews135likes68CommentsAllow the website to remember the view options for each separate folder (grid/list)
I use Dropbox at work but cannot install the app due to Admin limitations. Would be great to be able to set some folders/files in Grid view and others in List view rather than having all folders and files appear either in list or Grid. Thank you !169Views1like6CommentsIntegrated Video Publishing & Distribution Platform
Dropbox already holds our video files. Dropbox Replay already lets us collaborate on them. The missing piece? A clean, professional way to publish and distribute them. The Vision Imagine approving a final cut in Replay and publishing it directly to a branded, ad-free video player—hosted right from your existing Dropbox storage. No re-uploading. No third-party platforms eating into your budget. Just seamless delivery. Core Features Ad-Free Branded Player Custom player controls, your colors, your logo. Professional presentation without the clutter of platform ads or recommended videos pulling viewers away. Native Replay Integration Approve a video in Replay → publish with one click. The workflow stays inside Dropbox from raw footage to final delivery. Social Distribution Bridge Push to YouTube, Instagram, Vimeo, LinkedIn, and others from a single dashboard. Stop downloading, reformatting, and manually uploading to five different platforms. Unified Analytics View counts, engagement, and performance metrics across all platforms in one place. No more hopping between native analytics tools. Bandwidth-Based Pricing This is key. We're already paying for storage. Charging again for the same bytes doesn't make sense. Price tiers based on monthly bandwidth or views would be far more logical and competitive. Why This Makes Sense for Dropbox You've built the storage. You've built the collaboration layer with Replay. Video hosting is the natural third pillar — and it keeps users inside the Dropbox ecosystem rather than pushing them to Vimeo, Wistia, or others. For creators, agencies, and businesses already using Dropbox for video workflows, this would be a compelling reason to consolidate even further.

I have a large number of files that are starred. There seems to be a limit of 2000 that can be starred before they then don't appear when you apply the starred filter (which is a ridiculous limit) Even more ridiculous is that I can't un-star multiple files at once - i have to un-star each file individually - which is going to take a long time if I have over 2000!! Please, please, please build the ability to un-star files in bulk. It beggars belief that this isn't already a feature and I have to ask for it.54Views1like1CommentMake long filenames visible by wrapping onto additional lines
Please fix the Dropbox.com file display so that long filenames are visible by wrapping onto additional lines. On the Dropbox web app, long filenames are still truncated instead of wrapped. This is basic user interface behavior that has existed for a very long time. The File Requests section already does this correctly. The "file request name" column wraps long text to two or more lines, which proves the platform can support this. Please bring this behavior to regular file listings such as All Files. A file service should not require guessing, hovering or widening columns just to read a filename. This would be a simple change with a major usability benefit.69Views0likes2CommentsSearching deleted files
Being a photographer and independent video producer, I shoot thousands thousands of photo and video files for clients. Once the projects are finished and approved, after a period of time, I delete the raw files because they are so huge and take up a great deal of storage space. After deleting these large raw files. Occasionally, I need to restore something. But there's no need for me to search through thousands and thousands of files I haven't deleted to find something I did delete. It would be nice when I click on Deleted Files to know I would be searching ONLY files I have deleted and not have to wade through the thousands and thousands I haven't deleted to find what I need. That said, being able to make deleted files visible in context to undeleted files is helpful. I didn't know I could do that until yesterday talking to customer support, but being able to search only deleted files would be helpful.66Views0likes2Comments
