You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Make offline files visible in the android filesystem
I think you should make files stored offline on Android available in the file system.
As it is now, the dropbox files marked as 'available offline' are hidden from the rest of the operating sys...
It's been a while and there doesn't seem to be any interest on dropbox's side to add back this functionality. My yearly subscription ends in 2 or so months. Guess it's time to look into MEGA or Onedrive. What I liked about Dropbox was the Block-Level Upload, but since I'm using 3rd party apps to sync my music now with my android device, I'm having to waste time to scan the whole folder anyway, so it doesn't even matter anymore.
For whoever is interested about alternatives, MEGA is used as a big file sharing site a lot, so a subscription to them will help you get over their 4GB per day limit. And I think Onedrive also gives you Office. MEGA doesn't support syncing either, though. You still need to use a 3rd party app. Not sure about Onedrive. I think it does, but it's locked behind the subscription. Will investigate further.
