    Is there simply no support for Galaxy S4 to upload album/folders altogether to dropbox?

    There is a multiple upload view which only allows for photos grouped together by date. Since there is a mechanism in place for multiple upload. I would imagine there should be one for uploading whole folders?

    Thank you

      There is no support for uploading folders through the mobile apps.

        Hey Dropbox. This is NOT acceptabla for a fine service like yours! I am certain that all your customers using Android stand by my opinion. A paid service at that.

        Don't get me wrong, I realy like Dropbox. But I also realy miss this fetare. Please, I beg of you, as one of your customers and users, fix this for us. Thank you in advance.

    Hey Ed - could you confirm that it is NOT possible on Android (Galaxy S7):
    1. Copy entire folder from Android file system to dropbox
    2. Copying unlimited number of files from an arbitrary folder on Android files system to dropbox (I was able to figure how to share files via "share" feature, but it is limiting me to 10 items - very annoying).
