Alphabet navigation on ipad disappeared

[TroyP]

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?

1. I do like the new format of having file names wrap so you can see the entire name. The old style of File…name with dots imbedded in the name was quite cumbersome and misleading at times.

2. It appears that the Alphabet Slider has been replaced with a scroll element (circular with three horizontal bars).

May I suggest that you give the user an option in Settings to Show Alphabet Slider or Show Scroll Element.

Thanks,

Michael

Why would Dropbox remove the alphabet slider tool on the side of the files in their new version? That's like going backwards in technology and ergonomics. Please bring it back!!

Hey everyone, thanks for reporting this and for your feedback.

Our team has made an update on this, which you can find here.

I hope it helps.

Hi, the scrubber function is VERY inconsistent and slow to navigate. I imagine I am not alone in the feeling. I would love to have the alphabet navigation back (please!).

Agreed!!

Agree 100%.  The new scrubber button is still imprecise, jerks around and is slow and hard to use.    My live shows suffer due to this☹️

Please, Dropbox - - return the alphabet index.  We are desperate and begging.  PLEASE!!

Circling back to this thread…please bring back the alphabet navigation! 🙏
