After the latest iOS mobile app update, my offline files have been re-syncing.
I upgraded to version 428.2 yesterday and now my Dropbox app always shows my offline files as queued for resync when I launch the app. I just tested it by syncing my files, then closing and relaunch...

Dropbox EngineerIt is not re-downloading them, but it is checking to see if there's any changes. If it does start downloading the text under the file/folder name will indicate how many files are downloading or not.
This was changed to make it a little more clear when the offline files are refreshing because it often was showing an incorrect error ("refresh to update") when this was occurring. Is it the blue that's making it seem like it's downloading? We might be able to make it look a bit different instead.
Hi Zac, I don't need to know that Dropbox is checking for changes. I expect that to happen and I only want to be notified if something goes wrong. Right now every time I go into my offline list there's a blue circle on every item on my offline list along with notes like "queued' or " determining while files...". I much prefer the behavior of the prior version, even with the occasional incorrect error, than this distraction.
