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.

38 TopicsAutomatically start Uploading photos when charging - “Charge AutoSync”
1. So the idea is that once you plug in your charger, dropbox automatically uploads all your photos into the library. 2. This could be optional with sliding on off button. It could also be combined, so that when your phone is charging, and you are connected to Wi-Fi. It will start to upload your photos. 3. They could also be a third option, including both of the before mentioned solutions, but it would also synchronize your whole dropbox. All uploads and downloads would happen in this period. That way, you will never have to worry about using up all your battery at an inconvenient time,or all ofyour monthly amount of gigabytes from your service provider.14Views0likes0CommentsUse image EXIF for Dropbox tags and/or captions
Hello, is it possible for Dropbox to read EXIF in images? It would be great for images that require a caption along with tags. Also, it would be very very appreciated if third parties for Wordpress would be able to show these captions and tags with a simple code.12Views0likes1CommentShow the actual date a file is uploaded or modified
I don't understand why the dropbox mobile app doesn't show the specific date that a file is uploaded or modified in dropbox. This is a file management feature that has been around for many years and seems ridiculous that we can't see it in dropbox, especially when I'm sure your servers capture the specific date a file is uploaded or modified. All your app shows now is a nebulous designation of, for example, "2 weeks ago" or "3 months ago", etc.979Views0likes2CommentsOption that allows you to change the image resolution before uploading
I wish to upload pictures in a small format from my iPhone. From the album or directly taken from the camera. Now my problem is: all pictures are 3 MB. Bigger is not always better. If I wish to scan visit cards or a simple graphic for example, 300 KB are enough767Views0likes2CommentsUse video's first frame as its thumbnail
currently, for some bizarre reason, if a user uploads, a video to dropbox, the thumbnail attached to the video becomes a random screen frame approximately eight seconds into the video, rather than the first image of the video. Thus, if you make a video and wish to share it with others from your dropbox, the thumbnail that attaches to it will be some random unintended thumbnail. This is sub optimal programming, and dropbox says that they will correct it if enough users request it. please vote to make the thumbnail assigned as the first frame of an uploaded video.2.3KViews9likes6CommentsEdit or shorten the email address for the 'Email to Dropbox' feature
A simple solution could be making the auto-generated email address shorter. or allowing the user to name the email address The issue is the email address is so long that the computer system I am entering it into simply can't fit the long address. So I am sending it to my gmail account, which I am trying to have set up to auto forward to the auto generated dropbox folder email account. Gmail can not allow forwarding to an email until the email account owner opens an email approval link that is sent to the email account. Which I can not open an email in the dropbox auto generated email account so I can approve it.580Views0likes2Comments
