RETURN "STARRED" BACK TO LEFT NAVIGATION MENU BAR (revised location is not as expedient)

Hello Development Team,

Please return "STARRED" back to the Left Navigation Menu Bar (revised location is not as expedient).

 

Now user has to click Home, then scroll down, then click Starred (vs clicking Starred as part of Navigation Bar)

 

Thank you in advance.

Absolutely no point why STARRED and last opened (in German it is ZULETZT, dont know the English term here) have disappeared from the left menu bar. Bring them back.

Feedback from Dropbox would be appreciated.  Do they intend to put these options back on the menu?

Hi all,

 

We’re continuing to work on the ability for users to filter their content to improve find-ability, and as always, we're keeping an eye on your feedback. In case this was missed: as part of removing Recents and Starred from the left nav, we introduced them as filters on All FilesYou can now select these filters to see the same list of recently accessed or starred items from your root folder.

We’ll make sure to share updates here.

 

Thank you!

Sam

Hi Samantha,

 

Yes, but I can profit from this filter only on the top level of the hierarchy, not if I am midst of something somewhere. Beyond that I am still asking myself what advantage brought this now by two lines reduced left menu space ...

 

Cheers, 

Thoma

Yes. Please return STARRED back to left side panel. It was the thing I used  every single day for two years while writing a book in collaboration with several people. Very important. What you've done recently is not an improvement, but instead a hassle. I love Dropbox -- but not this recent change. THANKS. David
