I'm on a free Dropbox Basic account. My storage breakdown shows 3.9 GB under Backup, but there is no active backup on my current PC, and the computer that originally created that backup no longer exists. The backed-up files do not appear anywhere in my file browser, and unlinking old devices (including several) does not…
On 25 Oct 2026, I was shocked to realize some of my files were missing from Dropbox. So I went to Dropbox online - under deleted files. And I was shocked to see a total of 119 files deleted on 23 Oct 2026. I didn’t delete them and it’s randomized. I had to go press restore for all of them. Was there any recent glitches or…
I love the auto play when I’m in a specific folder. I often set audio files up so that I can listen to them in autoplay. But in recents, which it newly began auto playing, is counter productive as it goes through something like a song I’m working on, to a video. While I’m driving, this is basically a hazard. So I would…
I am not happy with the recent change in the Dropbox mobile app that displays modification dates beneath file and folder names. It suddenly appeared today with no notice or explanation, and it does not appear to arise from an app update. This additional information clutters the interface, wastes valuable screen space, and…

Sometimes I keep taking photos of the same thing until I get a good shot (or a few good shots), and then I delete the rest that I don't want to keep. But if Camera Uploads is on, I have to delete them in Dropbox too. This can sometimes become quite annoying, especially if I want to keep the 2nd or 3rd last shot, I have to…
Having trouble permanently deleting files from dropbox to save space. Most files I delete do not even show up in the “deleted files” on the dropbox.com site and ones that do, when I hit permanently delete tab, it is deleted but with message that “the file is lost forever but this does not free up storage space”.– the…
Jag har försökt åtskilliga ggr. att uppdatera Dropbox för att kunna använda den, men inte lyckas. Den vill bara att jag skall uppdatera en gång till.
Restore please the chance to visualize on iPad App the file name length as much as possible, instead of dots (“…”) in the middle of the name, also when the names of the file/folder need 2 lines to be seen. Thanks 🙏🏻
with the latest update the file list font and arrangement are very nice but prefer the Star to be like before, off to the right, alone, large and very easy to see. This new version with it being a smaller font gets lost in the format as you have to much harder. Before is was so quick as it stood out. Alternatively, adding…
The Problem:When uploading multiple files via the web browser interface, users currently have no way to set a custom order or prioritize which file gets uploaded first in the queue. Real-Life Context & Use Case:As a filmmaker and long-time Dropbox user of 15 years, sending heavy footage directly through the browser is a…
Searching for a term I know is in the filename returns thousands of results, pictures, spreadsheets, anything but the file that includes the search term in its name. "Most relevant" puts dozens of the most obscure matches at the top of the search. It is always a frustrating experience to search for a file that I know has a…
