Synchronize network folders over NAS
A lot of people own a personal NAS. A lot of people use Dropbox. So... A lot of people use Boxifier too. It would be great if Dropbox will integrate Boxifier features natively. That could even be a payable feature with a little add-on to "lower" plans and directly included in "upper" plans. No more pain about brokening of Boxifier when upgrading Dropbox
Progress bar or estimated time left on sync
Its a feature thats been removed, re-added, and removed again. No real explanation given to users. And given that you need to wait until a file has finished uploading in order to generate a valid link with 'copy dropbox link', we need to know when its going to finish uploading.
Stop Downloading Before Out Of Disk
Today, Dropbox does not gracefully handle running out of disk. It keeps going until it gets an error from the operating system that there's not enough space left at which point it's not even able to show you how much space it's using because there's not enough disk space for that to function. Ideally Dropbox would leave at least a couple GB so the system can keep functioning until the user has time to do something about it. Also, don't keep retrying - one notification after another about not being able to download is useless until a significant amount of space has been freed up one way or another. Making it easy to open a window with space usage and encouraging the user to keep more files cloud only would be much more user friendly.
"Make available offline" for multiple items
I have a request for your iOS app. From the right side ... menu items, I wish "Make available offline" was higher up the list. I use this often and I always have to screen to get to the item and click the item to make the file offline. It would be even better if "Make available offline" was one of the choices when I can select multiply files at once. Right now there is only "Save to device" but that's not what I want.
