I noticed that from around the start of June, whenever I share my dropbox links through WhatsApp (either mobile or desktop) they no longer appear like they used to with thumbnail and title, a little detail that was extremely helpful when searching for a link or delivering to a client. Now, whenever I share a link, it only appears as an ugly generic link with a description of what Dropbox is as a service.

Hi eretaval, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Do you get the same behavior when using another service, or only in Whatsapp?
Have you tried contacting them for assistance, since it's related to their program?
This will help me to assist further!

Hi Jay, as far as I know, the issue is still present in most messaging services: instagram, etc.
The link appears the same, no thumbnail or title 😞
I've tried different devices, browsers, clearing cache and it still looks the same.
Please let us have the links as they used to be, these new ones are awful and unpractical.
