Allow files to open without preview in the mobile app, like they used to.

I have the same issue. Trying to open a file of type *.KDB and it will only attempt a preview. I do have the proper app on my phone configured to open that type of file but apparently DropBox intercedes and won't do anything but attempt a preview. If DropBox app cannot preview it should proceed on to open in associated app automatically. This is a 'convenience' feature that is actually very inconvenient for users. Stop overthinking it, DropBox.

Hey all!

Looks like our voices have been heard.

There was a new release on Oct 17 for Android!

Now, on the preview screen, there is a link to "Open with..." so now we don't need to navigate to the 3 dots etc.

Interesting. I just set up a new phone yesterday afternoon and that update was released after that. I did just update and try it and it isn't really much progress. Instead of clicking the 3 dot menu and choosing 'Open with' now we click the file name and choose 'Open with' button. Still two clicks.

What I'd expect is an option to eliminate the preview attempt entirely, at least after the first failed preview open. The system should be smart enough (or configurable enough) to stop doing something that can never work. Setting: "Always open files associated with an app in the native app"

Not for me it doesn't. Two months ago when I clicked on my *.kdb file in the DropBox file list it just immediately opened KeePass app with the file.

Pixel 5 until yesterday, now Pixel 8 Pro. And prior to the 5, the Pixel 3. Until not too long ago (can't say exactly how many weeks) when I'd open DropBox to the file list and click my *.kdb file it would just open straight away in KeePass (to the KeePass login page). Heck, even back on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Active it worked like that. Until recently I never had to do more than click the filename once.
