Can I have all files become offline automatically on my Android Dropbox app?
Hi everyone,
Is there an option to have by default all your files available offline on an android device? With storage space reaching 1TB it would great to have everything available always.
If the option is not available and I have to mark each folder available offline, any new files added on that folder will they become available offline or I will have to do it for each one individually?
Thank you
Hello, based on my information, you will need to enable the 'Available Offline' option for each folder or file individually if you want them to be accessible offline.
Additionally, if you have made a folder available offline, any new files added to that folder will automatically be synced and downloaded to your device, making them available offline as well.
However, it's important to remember that while you're offline, changes made to your files and folders on your offline device won't sync with Dropbox.
Any new files you add while offline will eventually sync when you're back online.
