Dropbox V2 Obj-C Installation Query

9 years agoGot it, thanks for letting me know. Yeah, we weren't crazy about dropping iOS 8 support on our end either, it's just that we needed access to `SFSafariViewController` (rather than `UIWebView`) for rendering our auth flow.
Google, which offers our users a "Sign in With Google" option for logging in, has dropped support for using this button in anything but a semi-fullfledged browser (like Safari view controller).
That, combined with the fact that App Store was rejecting some apps for using an external browser redirect for auth caused us to drop support for iOS 8.
Hope you can understand where we're coming from. Please let us know if you run into other issues. Good luck!

Totally understand. I have been through quite a process myself, rewriting my syncing code at a low level to handle automatic syncing on iOS, Android and Windows. It was three different (though similar) implementations, which are all now out in the wild. The general premise was to have two background threads, one listening for changes coming in and another uploading changes going out. I am sure this is similar to what the old Dropbox Sync SDK used to do.
It is not a question of waiting and seeing if any problems arise, which I am sure they will.
