    Hey Jodes, let's try one more step, please.

     

    Feel free to uninstall the app, reboot your phone, then re-install. If this doesn't work, take a screenshot of the error message you get, and send it back to me here, so I can have visual too.

Hi Hannah,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

I already 'clear cache', 'clear history' and even re-installed Dropbox app, but the problem remains.

Hi leandrosilva, the steps you mention were via the OS interface. Could you try manually opening the Dropbox app, pressing the + button and then uploading the image to a folder?

    Hello Jay,

    Thanks for your reply.

    If I open the Dropbox app and then press + button, the upload is working.

    Via OS interface (which is the method, I generally use) always worked without any issue (before the latest iOS 16.3.1 update).

    I believe I'm not the only user experiencing this issue via OS interface, correct?

      Well, this is an important issue Dropbox is already aware of. Been almost a week with this, and many topics here at community. I've reached out on twitter, they imddiately replied, I followed the steps, and it worked regular for the first file uploaded.

      Then from the second file on, I would get the failure message, but the file would still get uploaded.

      But from the third on it's not uploading anymore.

      So we are back to 0.

       

      EDIT: Okay, just saw on the other topics that there was an update and it fixed the issue. I'll be updating mine now.

      Hello everyone,

      Apparently, the issue has been solved yesterday with the latest Dropbox update to v316.3.
