Extended version history overview

Your default version history depends on the Dropbox plan you have. However, you can extend your version history by purchasing one of our add-ons. See what add-ons are available for your plan below.

Dropbox Plus

Customers on Dropbox Plus can get one year of version history with the Extended Version History Add-on. 

To purchase or remove the add-on:

1. Log in to dropbox.com.
2. Click your avatar (profile picture or initials) in the upper right corner.
3. Click Manage account.
4. Click Subscriptions in the left sidebar.
5. Under Available add-ons, click View all add-ons.
6. Click Add or Remove next to Extended Version History.

When you purchase the add-on, you’ll be charged at a prorated amount for your current billing period. At the start of your next billing period, you’ll be charged for the full amount of the add-on, in addition to your subscription cost.

When you remove the add-on, your selection will go into effect on your next renewal.
