You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Folder Customization - Colors, Icons, and More
Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could customize our Dropbox folders to make them more visually appealing and easier to organize? I think adding more options to personalize folders could make a big difference, and I’d love to hear what others think about this idea! Here are a few features I’d suggest: Folder Colors: Imagine being able to color-code your folders—so much easier to spot what you need at a glance! Custom Icons: A simple icon, like a music note for your playlists or a book for your eBooks, could make folders feel more intuitive. This icon could be applied to the already existing folder image, or replace the folder with just an icon. Upload Your Own Images: Personalize your workspace with photos or unique images as folder covers—practical and fun! These tweaks wouldn’t just look great; they’d make organizing and navigating files so much smoother. Plus, other platforms already offer similar options, and it would be awesome to see Dropbox join in! If you think these features would be helpful, let’s make some noise and get Dropbox to consider them. What are your thoughts? Do you have other ideas for folder customization? Let’s chat in the comments and show the Dropbox team how much we’d love this!
Dropbox Dash login with Google creates credential conflict.
My dropbox account is not associated with a google account. Thus: I log into my google account, and Chrome. I add Dropbox Dash. It creates a new dropbox account using my Google account . I log out. There is no option to log in using my existing Dropbox account. There is no option to add an extra dropbox account. There is no option to add an extra Google account. So Dropbox Dash cannot access my dropbox files using Google Chrome as the browser. Is there a workaround? Cheers Gary
Dash and apps (Google Calendar)
I would like to enjoy Google Calendar services in Dash (have all 3 Dashes installed ... W10 Desktop, MS Edge extension, Chrome Browser extension). While Calendar seems connected (see screen shot) I don't seem to realize any Dash services for it .... or much of anything else actually (One Drive, Box, etc etc). Don't know if it a stacks issue or what. Those apps and more are 'connected' but don't see any services for them at Dash Home. Obviously missing something. Thank you in advance for any help.
