New search improvements help you stay organized and find content fast

Improvements to our search experience were designed to help you find your content faster—especially if you can’t remember the filename.

The new search interface includes recommendations that highlight:

• Recent searches and files
• Main collaborators
• Tags created by you and your team

You can also filter by date modified alongside folder, file type, people, and image properties to find what you need. Visit Dropbox to try it out.

Sharing improvements streamline collaboration, give users more control

We recently made enhancements to our sharing capabilities that give individuals more control over their content—you can now grant edit permissions to people you share folders with using shared links—making it even easier to collaborate in Dropbox. You can also create, manage, and share sub-folders within shared folders. Sharing improvements are available on the Web only on all individual plans. Visit our webpage to learn more about sharing enhancements.

Get unlimited storage space with the Dropbox Backup plan

The Dropbox Backup plan now includes unlimited storage space to back up one external drive—in addition to one computer—for just $5.99/month.

Just plug in your external drive to back it up. Videos, photos, and personal documents that are stored on your external drive will get backed up to Dropbox Backup where you can access them from any device. Visit our webpage to get the Dropbox Backup plan.

‘Smart’ enhancements to multi-file organize now available

A series of feature enhancements to multi-file organize include quick and easy organization with little upfront work and decision-making. Enhancements include intelligent recommendations on how a user should organize their files. A user will be given the recommendation and then they can confirm the move. To learn more about multi-file organize, visit the help center.

Updates to file requests naming conventions now available

Based on customer feedback, we’ve updated the naming conventions for file requests. Previously, the requester’s name was automatically added to the beginning of the filename. Now, users will be able to apply a customized naming convention representative of standards that they typically use. This will result in all files having a standard naming convention when they are added by multiple people.

Save even more time with updated naming conventions

Naming conventions help users quickly rename files and organize folders in Dropbox for consistency, easier sorting, and smoother navigation. Filename and formatting conventions can occur in folders at the same time. Updates include the ability to:

• Add a keyword to filename rule
• Add new media metadata (like camera model) to a naming convention
• Customize the order in which keywords, metadata, dates, and folder names appear

The naming conventions feature is available on all Dropbox plans. Learn more about naming conventions in our help center.

New features added to Dropbox Capture beta

We added three new features to Dropbox Capture, our visual communication tool that lets you get your message across with simple screen captures and video recordings. The new features, designed to help users create presentation-ready content faster, include:

1. Improved markup tools help users clearly annotate screen capture images, crop images, and blur portions of an image to remove any personal information
2. Video trimming lets users remove unwanted portions of their recordings with only a few clicks
3. Closed captions can now be turned on by screen recording recipients

Capture is currently in beta and is available in English only. To learn more about Dropbox Capture, visit our webpage.
