372 TopicsRequest for Dark Mode for the Website and the Desktop (including Paper)
I nearly go blind every time I open dropbox, how can you guys have been around so long yet you still don't have a simple toggle to change the CSS style to a darker color to not blind your users? Seriously. Can we please get a night mode?93KViews306likes201CommentsI wish Dropbox could cast image and Pictures to Chrome Cast
Dropbox Cast image and Pictures to Chrome Cast - feature request I am super happy with my Dropbox license which is widely used on Android, iPad, and Windows 10 systems. However, I miss one feature: The ability to cast directly from Dropbox on Android and iOS systems. I'm aware that you can set up your Android device to mirror the screen of a Chrome Cast, but it's cumbersome, and not always very reliable. Often the connection is lost and you have to set up the Mirror again. If you are using an IOS device, mirroring of the screen is not possible. I realize that there are work around solutions that can be used, for example to use a browser and cast it, but it's not super functional. My wish, and probably millions of other Dropbox users, is therefore: Can we get: Chrome Cast - integrated directly into the Dropbox App - for Android and iOS devices ? ? ? It will certainly be a feature that will be widely used.43KViews63likes36CommentsSee what folders a user belongs to
As an admin, I want to be able to easily see what folders a specific user belongs to. I'd love to be a be able to go to the "Members" page, click on a user, and then see a list of all the folders they have access to. If I need to partially reduce a specific users folder access, I would currently have to click "Share" next to each folder and look through who the members were. And even then, if they belong to a folder I don't, I won't know they are on it. I'd also like to be able to change their permission and uninvite them to those folders from that same view. So, once I've opened the "Members" page, clicked on the user, and am looking at the folders they belong to, I'd want to be able to make edits from there.42KViews64likes75Comments- 40KViews148likes81Comments
View org-mode / Orgzly files as text
Requesting a feature update that would allow org-mode /Orgzly files with the extension ".org" to be viewed as text files in Dropbox. Orgzly for Android allows for creation and editing of org-mode files in Android, and syncing with Dropbox. Being able to view the files would useful, without having to open them in a text editor (e.g. Emacs).38KViews148likes46CommentsEnable 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 exampleI wish to change “Vehicles and DOT” folder to say “🚗Vehicle and DOT”35KViews96likes25CommentsDropbox online - number of subfolders and files in a folder, like file explorer shows
Hi, I've been using Dropbox for quite awhile but am new to the Community discussions. I've searched the Community for an answer to my question, but have not found one that answers the full issue. I'd like to have information in my online Dropbox that shows for any folder (1) the count of the number of subfolders under it and (2) the total number of files under that main folder including all files in the subfolders. This is the same information given by File Explorer for folders on the computer. It would help considerably as I'm uploading a lot of data to Dropbox, and I want to compare to make certain everything gets uploaded. If this is not available currently, is there a feature request for it? Thank you so much.28KViews42likes26Comments
