Hi everyone,I’m a member of the Dropbox desktop application team.First off, I’d like to thank you all for your feedback on this.Earlier this year, we removed the time to sync estimate from the Dropbox menu and replaced it with a progress bar as we believed it would be a better measure of true progress of your files syncing, rather than the time to sync estimates.That said - we’ve heard you! We have decided to bring back the time to sync estimate in an upcoming build of the Dropbox desktop application!Once this build is released, you should automatically see the time to sync estimate again. We will also update you here as soon as the version with the time estimate is available.We truly appreciate all of your feedback, it’s very important to us to make Dropbox work for our users. Thank you!Hi all,
I've checked with the team and this has been released to the current stable version v73.
It is available now for download, but your devices should also automatically be updated to this version soon.
Thanks once again for your patience and feedback!

After autoupdate my dropbox to version 69.4.102 i noticed that upload/dowload progress in system tray look different, now its show only speed and dont show time anymore. Time was very important for me to understand how long need to wait upload/dowload.
How to fix this issue? Dowgrade to older version doesnt help, because its autoupdate again.
Dear Dropbox, please return older function which show time and speed together.
Thanks for help.

Guys
I am talking to support and they are saying this is the latest update and it's now like this
I advise you all to write them to ask to bring the feature back.
I will now search for an alternative software

Thanks for the update marinacoser, ridiculous that there still hasnt been an official word from dropbox about it.
Will have to look for alternative software. What feature will they remove next?

Well, they have replied to me over phone and Twitter, saying they will forward my feedback to the development team. https://twitter.com/Gloson/status/1111133606833864704
I've looked through 20 alternative cloud providers, but none of them is as fast as Dropbox, unfortunately, probably because I live in Southeast Asia and their servers are located in other parts of the world.
