It’s seemingly been on the launchpad for months, with this news coming months after Dropbox initially announced that the feature would begin rolling out back in November. This update aims to save pro users some time every time they go to access their work files from home and vice versa, or when managing multiple accounts from the Dropbox app.

For example, photos you add via Camera Upload will instantly show up in the Photos tab, but they’ll stay for your eyes only.”
