App for older Android tablet?

Hello! I have an older tablet - Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 running Android 4.2.2 - that I had Dropbox installed on, until I had to do a factory reset. Now, I can't install from Google Play store, as the current version is not compatible with my device.

 

Is there any way I can get an older version of the app that will work with my device?

 

Thanks!

    Thanks.  Have you heard of anyone having trouble with any of the dropbox downloads?  I have heard of hackers modifying downloads on legitimate sites like Google's Chrome store, so I guess nothing is completely safe, but one likes to try :-).

    Hi I have a similar problem below. I have tried an older version 188.2.6 and also 180.2.2 and each time I get the error message “there is a problem parsing the package”
    I have a Samsung GT - P7500 that is running Android version 4.0.4. Thanks

    Hi all; I hope this finds you well!

     

    I'm afraid if your device doesn't meet our minimum requirements, you won't be able to install our official mobile app. 

     

    I know it's not the answer you were looking for, but I hope this helps clear things up.
