7 years agoHmm. :thinking: Very interesting. Thank you so much for the screenshots.
Do you have more than one Dropbox accounts maybe? If you do have multiple accounts, can we make sure you are loged in with the same email/Dropbox account on both mobile devices?
If this doesn't work I will create a ticket and investigate this further for you.
Thank you for checking this for me.

Hi Fiona, no, just 1 single DB account, cbieregel@gmail.com, the same account I'm logged in with in all devices and all apps (i.e. Files app and DB mobile app, iPhone and iPad). If you could proceed with the ticket, that'd be great thanks. Thanks a lot for all your support. All the best, Cristoph
