Dropbox Family Questions. Can I add more space, and increase data restore?

Hi 

I'm thinking about moving from a Plus account to the Family package but first I have a couple of questions .... Thanks in advance...

 

  • Any updates/movement regarding the future of Storage Space sizes as it was noted on your FAQs page quite some time ago... see below?

Dropbox Family plan FAQs - Dropbox Help

Can I buy more storage space?
We’re working on a Family plan with more shared space, but an upgrade isn’t available yet.
 Individual Family members can free up space by deleting unused files and folders, or they can opt out of Dropbox Family and choose an individual plan that meets their needs.

 

  • Can a family member or the Administrator increase their version history from 30 days to 180 days by paying for an extra add-on?

      Hi Mark ... Thanks for the reply... 

       

      I appreciate (assuming) you're not employed by Dropbox ... Have you seen/heard of any timeline for updating the storage space that's mentioned in the Dropbox FAQ's ? 

      Or ... Perhaps a Dropbox employee can give an answer?

       

      If it's still a big no to any update/upgrade to the family plan, I probably will give it a miss and stick with the Plus account for the time being and put the family on Office 365 OneDrive.
