    You'll only be able to use the Dropbox website through a browser. You won't be able to install a Dropbox app.

Hey magdas!

It's true our system requirements for iOs is 11 or later. 

A solution would be to update your OS if possible.

Hope this helps. 

Have a nice weekend!

    Hi Fiona , thanks for your response!

    I have a 4th generation iPad which can only run IOS 10.3.3. - hence my problem. Will I not be able to use Dropbox since I can not upgrade anymore beyond IOS 10.3.3.?

    Thanks!

        Hi Rich thanks so much for letting me know!

        This is such a shame as I am running a writing software between devices (iMac, Macbook) that is syncing via Dropbox. This means I won't be able to use it on my iPad.

        Is there no way to download an earlier version of Dropbox for IOS at all?

        Thanks!
