moving files offline on android
When using offline on my android phone/tablet i want to be able to organise my files,
I.e when i go on holiday and im on a plane i want to be able to organise when offline.
Is there a way i can do this? because anytime i try move files it says can't connect to dropbox. Make sure your online or try later
Hi KGalloway1987,
Despite of Dropbox is sync service, Dropbox mobile applications (including Android' one) don't do this. Such application only lets user access and manipulate files online only (including moving them). Setting some of the files "offline" mean they are cached for access when you don't have network access, so you are going to able always use them (but only use!!). To do something else (including upload back, move, etc.) you need still working net. That's it.
Hope this clarifies matter.
