The Dropbox mobile app is crashing after a recent Android update

Hi there PDub81​  and welcome back to the Dropbox Community. It's great to have you here.  I’m really glad to hear the app is working again after the update and thank you for coming back to let us know. That kind of follow-up is always appreciated!

Since you’re using Dropbox on Android, I’d love to hear more about how you use the app and what you typically use Dropbox for. It’s always great to learn how people are getting the most out of it on mobile.

Looking forward to your reply,

We're happy to hear you're back up and running and thanks for keeping us in the loop too PDub81 

Let us know if anything else comes up!

Thank you.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the app.  The first couple of attempts editing the text file cause the app to freeze up, but the third time was the charm.

Hi PDub81, thanks for contacting us.

If you're not on a Dropbox Basic plan with more than 3 devices connected, could you try uninstalling the app, rebooting the device, and re-installing it to see if this helps?

This will help me to assist further!

My phone updated to Android 15 last night and now attempting to edit plain text files in the Dropbox app causes the app to crash.

Uninstall and reinstall the app. Just know that if you have any files marked as Available Offline, you'll need to mark them as such again.
