Mobile: when moving files or folders, don't get sent back to the root directory

At the moment when you want to move or copy files/folders, you get sent back to the root directory. This becomes tedious when the files or folders that you want to move are already in the same location. I keep getting sent back to the beginning, when what I am working with is right in front of me. 

My current workaround is using the search functionality, but this change would do wonders for the user interface when working on the phone.

    Hey Ike89 - thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on this.

    Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you please clarify if you're moving files via a web browser or the mobile app?

    Also, what is your device's OS and the steps you take to move your files? 

    Feel free to elaborate on your workaround and what you'd like to see implemented too.
