Description
What I did
I went to a shared private folder after a team member messaged me to say they had put a new files there.
What happened
The folder showed that it was empty, even after waiting a long time. I tried exiting to another screen and returning and still it didn't show. I tried closing and reopening the app and still it didn't show. I uploaded a file to the folder and 💥 the file uploaded by my team mate also appeared as if my uploading a file triggered refreshing.
What I expected to happen
To either see the file appear in a timely manner or there be someway for me to refresh the folder I'm viewing.
Why did I expect this
It's very unclear how old the data is I'm viewing on file and git views and without an ability to refresh a user can be stuck viewing old files which hampers collaboration.

Start by reproducing the issue in an Android shared private folder: observe whether a teammate's newly added file appears without another file operation, and check the current files-page refresh behavior. Done means users can see new files in a timely manner or manually refresh the folder view.
