How to Clear or Remove the Recent file list in mobile apps

Dropbox is directing the threads of people wanting remove the recents list here. I don't want to clear the list, I want it gone. I don't like opening the app on my phone and finding every thing I've looked at or uploaded in the past week. Although it's amusing to check my teenage son's phone and see what he's been up to. Yes, I know a password fixes that, but it doesn't stop children from looking over my shoulder and seeing biology dissections. I try to turn off camera uploads before taking those pictures because right now I don't need to save them in Dropbox, but I might forget or need to upload them someday. 

On the phone app, the recents list means I have to click extra times to get to the files I need. Some people might use the same files over and over and find it useful, I don't. Giving the end user a choice on the usefulness of this feature should be reasonable and I don't understand why it's taking so long to modify the code and release an update. The time frame on complaints and the fact Dropbox redirects people who don't want the list to the thread for people who want to remove files from it makes me feel they're not listening.

An option to show it as default v your normal folders list is all I ask.
