Hi, I was able to figure out what was happening to me. On the physical hardware device, when authorization occurred I recieved a window as stated above, I did NOT recieve the window on the IOS simulator. OS 10.13.6. I found this link; https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-obj-c#handling-the-authorization-flow
specifically a call to openURL which is described as a redirecte back into SDK. I placed the code in AppDelegate.m, and the connection was allowed to happen. One solution pointed to the view controller not being on the top, but I don't think that was relevant. Thanks again

Dropbox StaffThanks! To clarify though, I was asking for the name and version of the Dropbox SDK (not iOS version) you're using, if any. E.g., are you using SwiftyDropbox or the Dropbox Objective-C SDK, and if so, what version number do you have installed?
Anyway, that clock icon you referred to is actually a Safari icon. That's displayed as part of the SafariViewController, as a way to open that page in the full Safari browser. You don't need to use that though, as you should be able to complete the flow in the SafariViewController.
Since you mentioned this only happens in the simulator, can you check if it happens in all simualtors, or only that one in particular?
