Hi Nancy,
Yes, the palette icon has now appeared in a new update. However, now the spacing is different between folders – is there a way to customize (reduce) that, so that more fits on the screen?

Hey Philip Kapadia, welcome to our Community! 

 

Can you clarify the OS and Dropbox app version you're using on your end, and also let me know if you're talking about camera uploads, or manually uploading files by clicking the + icon? 

 

Feel free to send me a screenshot too, if you have one available. 

 

Also Antony P.3, I do not believe that's possible, but give me some time to check internally about this, and I'll get back to you.

    Hello Megan, Thank you. 

     

    I'm on the latest Android OS and Dropbox (Apologies - too lazy to find out for the moment, but I don't think it's relevant for the suggestion I'm trying to make)

     

    I'm trying to download files from my Dropbox account, but I noticed when I initialize the download, there is no progress bar within the application, which indicates how many GB is left to download.

      Thanks for the feedback on this Philip Kapadia - we've passed it on to the team.

       

      Our team is currently investigating this feature, and we'll update you as soon as we have more to share!

      Hi Philip Kapadia, and sorry for the late response. 

       

      After checking with our team as well, there should be indeed a progress bar when downloading/exporting your files from the mobile app.

       

      Are you still unable to see it? 

       

      If yes, I’d like to know the Dropbox app version you’re using.

        Hi Nancy, thanks for responding and sorry for my slow reply. 

        I noticed this feature has since been added - that's great!
