Click the link on the left side that says "files" you will see the old view. Its the first item under recents.
If you do not see it, then I suspect it is a browser rendering issue. Please try another browser.

Usually Dropbox is quite responsive to fixing their mistakes, for example ditching their failed Carousel app.
I can understand why Dropbox have implemented this annoying feature, i.e. in an attempt to encourage users to 'share' more, but Dropbox is not Facebook. Dropbox is first and foremost a personal repository of ones' files. If Dropbox does not recognise and appreciate this fact, they risk alienating their customer base and losing customers. And let's face it, there is lots of free alternative options out there which allow their customers to control their data as they please.
So Dropbox, please change the default login (on Android app) back to Files or give us the ability to change it ourselves. Like others have said, everyone absolutely hates the fact that you force us to open onto the Recents tab. Please resolve this issue.
Thank you.
