Web views often don't use the same browser engine as the system browser installed on the system, and so get out of date and are prone to compatibility issues like this. The Dropbox OAuth app authorization flow is accordingly not supported in web views like this. You should only process it in a supported system browser. You can find information about this in the /oauth2/authorize documentation.
