Dropbox offers a feature called "Offline Access" that allows you to access your files even when you're not connected to the internet. Here's how you can enable it:
Enable Offline Access for Specific Folders
- Log in to your Dropbox account on your computer or mobile device.
- Locate the folder you want to make available offline.
- Click on the three dots next to the folder name.

Once enabled, the folder will be downloaded to your device and accessible even when you're offline. You can find it in the "Offline" section of your Dropbox app.
Enable Offline Access for All Files
You can also choose to have all your Dropbox files available offline. This option is ideal if you frequently work with large files or need access to all your files without internet connectivity.
- Open your Dropbox app settings.
- Find the "Offline" section.
- Enable the option to "Sync all files offline."
Keep in mind that enabling this option might require more storage space on your device.
