--> Did you know... you can search for images using just text?

Hello Dropbox Community!

 

My name is Lainie and I'm a Product Manager at Dropbox.

 

Every now and again, I am going to post a "--> Did you know..." to 1) keep you informed of all of the cool technology that exists at Dropbox and 2) gather your feedback on how the features are performing. 

 

In today's, "--> Did you know..." I'll be talking about Image Search!

Image search is allows you to use the Search Bar to search for the contents of the image using words to describe the image. For example, if you search for "cat" your search results will show files that 1) contain the word "cat" in the file name or body, AND 2) files that contain images of cat. No mention of the word "cat" is necessary! Pretty cool! If you haven't yet, I recommend that you check it out.

 

Please respond to this thread and let me know...

A) Did you know this feature existed? Do you use it?

B) How can we make this even more useful for you?

 

Have a great day!

Lainie

    Why don't you have a Merge feature..as many of the files / photos are dups!

    And-- if my merged/eliminated files exceed the Box data limit--it says the new data will still be saved! TRUE ??

    What about the text 'cat' inside an image? Say as in a text 'meme'?
