Doesn't work properly. Hard to select destination folder.

It's hard to imagine this addon being harder to use. The download feature is slow and if you're adding to a directory with a large number of files, they are divided into unsearchable pages. To the devs: Really? This is the best you can do with this?

It's really slow, can't search, and generally a pain to use.

It is much easier to do "save as..." to download, or simply drag from the folder to add to an email than to use this app's interface

Downloading email attachments to Dropbox folder - can only do one at a time! What? We pay for this.

Cool that you can add files to email. However, if I need to add more than one file it is very terrible. Every file you want to add it starts with the root dropbox folder and I need to navigate all the way to the files I need to add for every single file. It should be smart and allow me to select multiple files or at the very least when I click to add the second file it starts in the last folder I was in, not go all the way back to the root folder. Thanks.

It is not as good as the original Dropbox app and has fewer features. We need the ability to add multiple files at once into an email instead of one by one. Also, can you make the app open the last folder destination instead of the main Dropbox folder? I have to navigate to the correct folder every time so adding multiple file links into an email becomes time-consuming. I prefer the old app.

Completely useless. Incredible how something like this could get past an entire highly-paid dev and coding teams; past management/engineering, and then to final product rollout. Can't attach more than 1 file at a time, no search function, useless side icon, as well as completely sluggish performance. I will keep using Gmails auto-attachment link interface until something better arrives. Hate having to use multiple cloud based services but I guess thats just where we are in the year 2022/2023. Massive disappointment.

Unreliable. Frequently fails to work, with the uninformative error message of "Something went wrong when executing the add-on."
