Thanks for checking on that Chiara_!

 

Can you confirm for me the exact iOS version of your devices and the Dropbox app installed on them?

 

If you haven't already, please try restarting your devices to see if that helps at all.

Hi Daphne
I assume you wanted to mention me? ;)
My Dropbox app version is 206.2.2, and I installed iOS 14 yesterday on both devices. I have already restarted and rebooted my devices several times.

What I've just observed is that now when I change the document type from automatic to PDF (under the blue options >) the 'save to Dropbox‘ action as well as the Dropbox icon at the top disappears completely, screenshot attached.
