Alphabet navigation on ipad disappeared

The alphabet navigation disappeared on our ipad os version 16.7.2, dropbox version 362.7.  We rely on that to navigate the numerous files we have.  How do I get it back?

Hi everyone! After checking with our team, it looks like this feature has been indeed removed from iOS devices (please check Ben's post here). I'll definitely share your feedback with the team though, so that they can also see your comments.

Ben’s post says there is a slider bar. There definitely is not one on Dropbox 364.2.4, iPhone IOS 16.7.5. Please bring some kind of quick navigation for hundreds of files inside a folder! Dropbox has made my life a little more tedious by removing this feature.

    Hi again, SConnon! Did you try scrolling down a bit with your thumb and the scroll bar still doesn’t show?

      I can flick with my thumb/finger on the screen to move up and down through the files. Definitely nothing quick. No bar of any kind shows up. The alphabet list on the right worked so perfectly. I would love to see it back.
