    Yes, we dropped support for iOS 8 support in v3.0.12. We had to do so to support some changes to the authorization flow. There's more information in the release log.

That amounts to over 30 million iOS 8 users that no longer have access to Dropbox.

If you add the number of IOS 9.3 users who now are not able to downlaod Dropbox, that is a staggering number of users. Why don't developers realise that a lot of users are not going to update to the latest release if they are happy with what they are using!
