    Confirming I cleared cache and reinstalled Dropbox per the above instructions and it is working. It seems the issue is fixed in the latest version of Dropbox.

Hey FiggleWiggle! Did you reinstall the Dropbox app on your phone with these steps and it didn’t make a difference? 

 

If not, can you send me a visual of the notification you keep receiving? 

 

I’d also like one more screenshot of the permissions you’ve enabled so far, to have a closer look. 

 

Let me know when you’re ready.
