Dropbox paper files clog up the root as they cannot be moved or put into a folder

.paper files clog up the root of dropbox - you have to manually move them which is time consuming or leave them there to clog up your root/

 

why not have a folder for them or allow them to be moved from within the app - I know that you can move them manually from within dropbox but this makes the app not as useful …in all other apps eg Dropbox/Todoist/Reminders/Google you can move a doc from within the app - this would not be a big ask from a development perspective…. simple 3 buttons  - save to move to and rename buttons >? Would make this app very useful and would make it a real option over Evernote which I currently have to use - it would also make dropbox a more attractive prospect for users.

 

Simple change but big usefulness to many users I reckon

 

Thanks
