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.
Forum Discussion
Select which properties are searched by default (e.g. Filenames, Tags, IPTC keywords)
Proposal: Provide checkbox setting to select which properties are matched by text search.
- Filename (default)
- DropboxTags (default)
- Photo Keywords (default)
- Photo Camera Model (option)
- etc..
Benefits: Currently "Sam" matches all photos taken with a "samsung" phone, as well as all photos with "Sam" in the Tags, Keywords or Filename. This is not usually the desired result!

Hi oomzay, thanks for posting here!
Your comments on our search have been quite helpful, and I will do everything I can to ensure that your voice is heard.
Is it safe to assume that you've taken a look into this relevant Help Center article, that describes all the options you have when searching for files?
Do any of these help? If not, what else would you want to see on your end?
Keep me posted!
