Re: Why is the Dropbox app slow when syncing?

Many users have reported slow syncing with the desktop application and the answers are never useful.  Google Drive syncs instantly, so lack of bandwidth, etc., are generally not the cause.    Can't dropbox fix the problem?

    Hey Pedw, thanks for reaching out.

     

    I moved your post to a relevant thread that includes some steps for you to check, in case your issue has to do with bandwidth settings.

     

    Can you check them out and let me know if they help?

     

    Thanks.
