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...
My solution that solved it was the Dropsync app from the Google Play store. You can set up folder pairs (your music or video call or whatever) to sync where you want them to be. I set up the folder holding my music on Dropbox linked to a music folder on the SD card in my tablet. It indexed all the subfolders in the DB, then created matching subfolders on the SD card, then filled them all with the mp3 files. You can choose whether it checks for changes and syncs them, how often, if it can use your mobile data, if you don't want to sync unless the android is plugged in, and if it syncs files both directions or just one. The free version is limited, but the pro key is reasonable and permanent and lets you set up a large number of folders to sync. This is the best way I've found to make your offline files visible and accessible to any app you want to use locally.
