Speed controls in the mobile app for audio and video files

[BradenChase]

The fact that I can easily play almost any audio or video file in my iOS is just another reason I've stayed with Dropbox over the past 10 years.

The new feature I'd love to see the ability to do a 2x or 4x speed on the audio/video inside the iOS app. 

This is available on the web interface.

Please oh please put it in the iOS app as well.

Life-changing for audiobooks, webinars, trainings, etc.

Hello there @BradenChase - welcome to our Community!

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll make sure to pass this on to the team as a feature request. I won't be able to comment on if or when this might be implemented though.

If you have anything else to add, don't hesitate to reach back out; we're only a post away!

Oh, and keep the creative energy flowing

This idea is going to need a bit more support.

We've updated the status to encourage more users to back you up!

I hope we can because it could turn Dropbox into a media player. 🙂

Yes!! I would LOVE this feature: speed control for audio playback in Dropbox for iPhone.
I currently have spent an hour or so researching Dropbox compatible music player apps for iPhone in order to solve this one tiny 'Speed control' feature issue. No luck as yet! I'd rather not have to get yet another app in order to have this feature available... and its already been a frustration & time-consuming searching through other apps & reviews to not find anything suitable as yet & not cost me more money just to be able to speed up the audios listen to.
The Dropbox speed control has been brilliant on my desktop... I just can't fit my desktop in my pocket to take it with me on travels!! 😉

There are currently some simple play speed settings in the embedded player, but having more control would be great. I'd like to see a feature where you could adjust a slider in increments of 5%, to scale the speed down from 100%-50%. Currently, it jumps from 100 to 50; as a musician,  smaller increments would be great.

ok thanks! I'll share it among some groups who use it, to get some more support.

Please add more play speed controls to browser audio playback. Would allow more flexibility.

Yes, it's very inconvenient, especially when you pay for the storage service.

Also need speed controls at android.

It would be great to adjust the playback speed in audios and videos directly in the dropbox app.

This feature is a must in year 2021.
