Hello! Unfortunately we no longer have the alphabet slider, but we do have a new file scrubber to help you quickly scroll through your files. If you tap, hold, and drag the file scrubber down you should be able to easily scroll through your content. When scrolling through files specifically, you'll be able to see the first letter of the files you're scrolling through as well. I have included a screenshot of what the experience looks like below! Hope this helps.

Hi Jay,
I have the same problem and have followed your advice with no success - clicking anywhere on the alphabet always takes me straight to the bottom of my files list - I’m unable to select a particular letter.
many thanks for your help,

Hi ch4rl13, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Could you please clarify your device's OS version and the version of the Dropbox mobile app installed there as well?
Also, have you tried clearing the app's cache at all since you first noticed this?

I’m using Dropbox version 314.2.2 on my iPad mini (iPadOS 16.2).
I have cleared the cache, which hasn’t made any difference.
The same thing happens on my iPhone, so I don’t think it’s my end.
Thanks,

Hi ch4rl13, have you tried restarting your device entirely after clearing the cache?
