Product Design
Suggested edits in Dropbox Paper
Dropbox Paper is a collaborative text-editor and productivity platform. As Paper enables more final work use cases, users desire more editing from copy editors and sign-off from stakeholders. As a Dropbox product design intern, I designed a suggested edits feature for Paper.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
If we provide users an easy way to suggest and accept edits in Paper, they will collaborate more often and thus retain at higher rates.
Users are accustomed to Google Docs and Microsoft Word suggested changes and view Paper as behind the curve. We believe that suggested changes will improve communication between collaborative users and speed up the content creation and editing process on Paper.
