Make folder available offline on iOS

I have been waiting very patiently for the ability to make folders available offline in the iOS app. It seems Android users have this function already. It has been asked for so many times going back years and still no sign on iOS. Then I saw this post:

 

https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Space/Maximum-Size-for-an-offline-folder-on-iOS/m-p/197778

 

I have the latest Dropbox app on my Ipad Pro. I have Dropbox Pro, but I don't have this feature in my app. 

 

I am actually considering switching to another Cloud storage because of the lack of Offline folders, but am now confused whether it is available or not?

    Hi there

    I bring good news. Making folders available offline is now possible on iOS :)
  • OK solved. IPAD needed a restart to make this function visible.

      Great thanks for the info. Is the user who posted the message I referred to on a Beta program then?

      Good morning,

      may I kindly ask - what does "soon" mean - is there any date you can share with us?

      Thx

        Perfect! It works fluently! "Information at your fingertips" as they said in the old times. Thanks again
