    Hi all,

    Native Apple silicon support is now fully available. All users with Apple silicon devices will receive the native version of Dropbox automatically. If you would like to update your device manually, you can do so by clicking on the latest Stable Build and downloading the Offline Installer (Apple Silicon) file. For more information, visit the Dropbox Help Center.

     

    If you need assistance with anything else, please feel free to create a new thread and our community team will be happy to assist.

Hey everyone,

I did everything that was asked on Dropbox Help to get access to "Early releases" and use a native app on an M1 MBP... but a month later I didn't get a notification, or link to download it and when I download the app I need to use Rosetta... am I doing something wrong? is there a direct link to download the Apple Silicon Beta? 

any help will be priceless 🙂
