Entering Password and the select box "Remember me"
Each time I log onto DropBox there is "Remember me" for password entering and I would like to know what it is for.
Also how do I default setting not having "Remember me" selected.
Thank y...

Dropbox StaffHey Mick05, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community today!
This should be a setting in your browser, but would you mind sending us a screenshot, so I can confirm?
Just please make sure you hide any personal info on the screenshot, like your email address, password, etc.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Hannah and thank you.
I have attached two images and hope they are what you are looking for.
Are you able to advise what is the purpose of "Remember me" section.
Cheers Mick

Hi Mick05, thanks for your screenshots!
The "Remember me" option is there, to essentially make sure Dropbox remembers your web session, when you try to sign in again.
As for the second screenshot: what happens when you put your email address there, and then proceed to input your password? Do you then see the option there?
Hi Hannah
Yes - after entering my email address the next screen has enter password, and also has a tick for "Remember me".
Thank you for the explanation on "Remember me", and perhaps I am being paranoid but I would prefer for that function not to be the default setting.
Cheers Mick

Thanks for your reply, Mick!
At the moment, the default is for the "Remember me" option to be checked, however, we appreciate your feedback on this; I've passed it along to our team.
If you need anything else, don't hesitate to let us know.
