Can I have different folder access on different devices?

If I have 2 devices linked to my account, and I have 4 main folders in Dropbox, can I set one of my devices to only have access to 1 of the folders, not all 4?  And still have the other device have access to all 4 folders?

  • Hey there becB - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Community!

     

    You should be able to achieve what you had in mind by adjusting your selective sync settings through the app's preferences on both devices according to your needs.

     

    Let us know if you have any other questions.
