iOS app opens to blank screen
Every time I open the Dropbox app it just goes to a blank screen so I can’t access any of my files. The only way I can fix it is to restart my phone which takes a lot of time as it seems to only work...
- 6 years agoHey mario f.2, it's Jane this time; sorry to hear about any frustration caused.If it’s not too much to ask, could you try the following steps once to see if these do the trick this time?
- Uninstall the Dropbox App
- Sign out from iTunes
- Restart your device
- Sign into the iTunes
- Download and Install Dropbox
- Try to sign into your Dropbox account
Please give me a nudge with the results when you get a chance to get going with that. Thanks!

6 years agoHi everyone!
Thanks for letting us know jennieb. Happy to know you are no longer facing this issue.

Hey Fiona,
PROBLEM IS BACK AGAIN!!!! 😭😭😭😭
Arghhhh.... agree with Nellz - increasing your charges for a service that doesn't work more often than it does, is unjust and requires far greater attention than Dropbox appears to be giving it (going by the volume & duration of complaints).
Has the root cause of this ongoing problem been identified? Would be basic customer service to communicate this with us and update as the solution is progressed.
The far more cost effective (though trickier initial setup) NAS solution is very rapidly increasing in its appeal...

Hey Nellz and jennieb, thanks for nudging us again on this thread and sorry to hear that you're having trouble with this.
Since you've already tried reinstalling the mobile app - great work by the way! - could you also try clearing your Dropbox mobile app's cache?
Let me know of any updates!

TBH I'm completely over all these quick fix attempts.
We have paid for a service that doesn't deliver time and time again.
The frequency of this issue recurring suggests Dropbox is putting the problem on the customer instead of fixing it themselves.
UNACCEPTABLE.
The only reason I haven't cancelled my subscription is because I have so many files with you and don't have the time to transfer them. If there was an easy click and transfer button, I'd do it immediately. Shocking service. Over it.
- KylieC6 years agoExplorer | Level 4Hey everyone, I started this thread and at the same time had a support request logged. Through the support case I have provided videos of this happening on my phone so they’ve told me they acknowledge this is a problem and are working on a fix. Perhaps this hasn’t been communicated with the staff replying in this forum??
