Problem searching for files in dropbox iOS ipad
Since the last update of the app, searching for files (by name) never shows any result.
Dropbox-app version 224.5 (27 feb 2021) on iPad with latest iOS (14.4).
In previous versions it worked fine...

Tried again today and guess what: it works again. On iPad and iPhone.š¤

Thank you, Megan. I just received an e-mail from Anton. Heās suggesting the same steps Iāve done multiple times. However, I did them again, and replied to him with a screencast to show him that the search still doesnāt work. Iām really hoping someone can resolve this for me soon.

Hi amyonline15, happy Friday!
I checked, and it seems you just got a reply back. Did you have a moment to check this?
- amyonline154 years agoHelpful | Level 5Yes. I just saw it. But I donāt think heās understanding my issue. He says that I have to have Dropbox Professional to search for files. Iām really hoping this isnāt true, as Iāve used this plan for YEARS now. Iām literally typing in the NAME of a file or folder, that is CLEARLY there, and itās not being found.

- amyonline154 years agoHelpful | Level 5Yes, I understand that. But Iām not getting the help I need! I wish I could speak to him on the phone. This is so frustrating. Surely someone can call me.
