    Hey all,

     

    Thank you for your patience while we worked on getting this resolved. A fix for this has been released and shared links to folders should now show image and video thumbnails correctly, and let you interact with the thumbnails to view previews of the files. 

     

    This should work correctly for all users now, however if anyone is still seeing issues with shared links to folders on mobile web browsers, can you let us know in detail what behaviour you are seeing? 

     

    Thanks again to everyone that reported this behaviour and helped us to identify the source of the problem!

     

     

    Best,

    Frank
