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.
I have been using dropbox capture on a daily basis for the past 6+ months and have completely replaced "Snipping Tool" on windows. I love that the pictures are automatically saved in dropbox, but I believe the below features could increase productivity even further.
While most of the time I delete the unwanted pictures by directly opening the capture folder on my computer, I think it would be useful if a feature to select multiple screenshots or videos recorded directly from the dropbox capture website allowed me to delete them easily.
Also, while deleting pictures one by one on the website, it asks every time whether I want to delete or not for every picture. It would be great if it allowed an option like "Don't ask again for 30 minutes".
Also, if there is a way to change the thumbnail size on the dropbox capture website so we can see what's in the screenshot that would be great. Maybe add a hover feature to increase the size of the picture temporarily.
In addition, the capabilities to sort files stored in Dropbox Capture by Videos and Pictures would be useful. An additional option could be the time they were stored etc. I do like that the most recent one shows up at the top of the page on the website.
Lastly, another feature to maybe automatically show all screenshots on the website instead of selecting "Load More" to view additional features would really save some time.
YoucefDropbox I am back with a few more ideas based on my continuous use of Dropbox Capture. I am sure others may have already submitted these, but still thought of sharing.
1. allow an option to add a virtual background for the camera feature video recording. We don't want to always share the messy room behind our video lol
2. Ability to switch the camera to cover the entire selected area for recording with short cuts. The shortcut an allow between small camera slot or exapnd it to cover the entire screen. Would be helpful when we are done showing what's on the recorded screen and want to give some remarks or closing comments.

rsingh3 Noted. #1 is actually something we used to have on Capture that we decided to remove until we make it better. So we will definitely bring it back in the future.
Got it for #1, I can see how helpful it could be for closing comments like you said.
As usual, thanks for your feedback! YoucefDropbox Couple more ideas on the audio side for capture for both Video recordings & audio only recordings.
1. Add a compressor in case the audio from both vidoe recording or audio only recording is too low and need to be enhanced before finalizing a video. Or even an AI software that can improve the audio quality without making someone having to make adjustments manually.
2. Add basic background music options to go along with the simple videos so they don't get too boring with just the person talking in the video. Music doesn't have to be too loud so it becomes too distracting for the viewer or the person recording can adjust settings before finalizing.
3. Add additional features for audio editing and also show dB levels/meter (Lufs meter) for the audio being played.
