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!
I upgraded from a trial to Plus via the site, but I'm getting a payment error
Dropbox Plan Plus Payment Method iDeal How did you upgrade? Directly through the Dropbox website Question or Issue I upgraded from Free Trial to the Plus plan, via the webbrowser (firefox) on Macbook, and everything went fine until after payment via iDeal, returning to the Dropbox site it showed an error simply stating "Something went wrong". And now I'm still in the free trial plan within Dropbox with a 2 GB limit, no upgrade to 2TB whatsoever. That's an expensive error.
I'm trying to upgrade but it says my account is already using the Plus plan.
I've been using the dropbox basic plan for years, but decided to upgrade to the Plus plan. I got an error when trying to upgrade, but it shows my account plan as Plus. It's saying that I'm out of storage at 12 GB. I can't go in and reupgrade right now, as it shows my plan already at Plus. Help!
I'm trying to cancel a Plus plan, but all I see is a Dropbox Basic account.
I am helping my mom with cancelling a number of recurring subscriptions and the most difficult one has been this drop box account. I keep cycling through how to cancel a dropbox account trial/account but nothing is working. There is no billing history in the account and the subscriptions page says she is on dropbox basic online. she is charged via card and gets an annual email with the last email saying: "our subscription will renew on August 24, 2025, and you’ll be charged $130.01 on that date and again each year, until you cancel. If you’d like to cancel your subscription, access your account settings You may also contact support at any time." but when I click the apps it send me on a goose chase. HOW CAN I CANCEL?

See screenshots below:How to stop the upgrade notifications on my Dropbox online?
I've had the Dropbox Plus plan for over 10 years and have been more or less happy with the service. My account is about ⅓ full at any given time. Most of the time I use the desktop app (Mac OS 15.6.1, dropbox v.237.4.5655) which syncs my files across 3 devices and between several apps. I don't sync all files to the desktop obviously, so sometimes I have to log in to the web version to see all files. Dropbox bombards me with requests to upgrade to business level and work with "my team". not just once or twice, but EVERY TIME I log in. That and the giant green button at the top a different color from everything else on the page constantly begging me to upgrade... aaaarrrrrghhhhh. Is the desktop site intended to drive away non-corporate customers? I've done lots of projects with other people and the whole point of using Dropbox was the ease of passing files between all our different freelance accounts. It's out-of-proportion annoying. I have scoured all the notification and account settings and found nothing. Please how can I stop it? thanks!How can I downgrade your plan to the Dropbox Plus account with 1TB of space?

A new folder I created says it doesn't have an owner when I try to share it
Dropbox Plan Plus Are you a Team Member or Admin? No. I own the account. There is no Admin, and there are no Team Members Do you have access to the email linked to the account?

Dropbox Plan Plus Payment Method Credit Card How did you upgrade? Directly through the Dropbox website Question or Issue On 3rd Nov 2025, I updated the credit card details for payment, and the update and payment were successful. But on 6th Nov 2025, I received an email saying Renewal Payment failed, need to update and pay again. After I updated this time, I received the receipt. Now, my Bank Statement shows 3rd Nov and 6th Nov also deducted $129.47, which means that I have a double payment for the subscription period 1/11/2025 to 1/11/2026. May you help me check if the 3rd Nov Payment will be refunded or not? and I will contact the Bank at the same time. Thank you.
