"Dropbox Folder" / Location by Update 2022.12.18

I'm using Dropbox on MacOS 13.0.
I have received Dropbox update notice, by the developers.
On the Web Page, They wrote that the location of the "Dropbox folder" would change after this update.

[Q.1] Do I have to change the location of this folder by myself? Or is it done automatically?

[Q.2] Do I have to do the above "change folder location" on all my synced devices?

    It will happen automatically on each device as they receive the update.
