Copy and Download directly from shared folder previews
Hello! My name is Katie and I’m part of the sharing team at Dropbox. Our team is committed to enhancing your file sharing and receiving experience and we have an exciting announcement in store for you.
When someone shares a folder with you, you can now copy and download individual items directly from the shared folder preview. This feature provides you with the flexibility to easily access and use the files that are most important to you, without having to download the entire folder. You can select the specific items you need, and with just a simple click, store them either in your Dropbox account or on your hard drive.
To take advantage of this functionality, all you need to do is hover over the file or folder you wish to save, and the new options to Copy and Download will appear automatically.
We’re excited to keep improving the content preview experience and want to hear from you! Feedback on this update, as well as what you would like to see added to previews next, is always welcome!
