Vault disappeared on iPhone app after last update
I’m running iOS 17.1 and DropBox app version 352.2.2. Since the last DropBox app update Vault is no longer accessible. I’ve been able to access it on the desktop site only. I’ve cleared the cache and signed out but Vault does not show up. Is this a known issue with this version or is it a feature going away on the app?

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Lanie00.
Since there's a new version out right now (352.2.4), would you mind updating to that one, to see if that helps?
Keep me posted.
- Lanie002 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi Hannah, it doesn’t appear that version is available on the App Store at the present.

Hmm, in this case, would you mind removing/uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it?
- Lanie002 years agoExplorer | Level 3I’ve tried that as well but no dice. The menus under “Accounts” is different. There used to be a “Features” header and “Vault” underneath but Features isn’t even listed on the update.

Would you mind sending us a screenshot of that, Lanie00?

Even when I click on "What is included in my plan?" there's no mention of Vault.
- Lanie002 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi Hannah,
I added screenshots below. Any update on this issue? - Lanie002 years agoExplorer | Level 3

Hi Lanie00, I'm an engineer on the iOS app.
We've changed the messaging and options in those views you shared, so those screenshots seem correct. That said, the Vault feature and folder should still be available via the Files tab on mobile.
Could you please confirm whether the folder is accessible at the top level of your Dropbox folder within the Files tab?
- Lanie002 years agoExplorer | Level 3Thanks for the info, Ian! It appears typing in the word “vault” and searching there turns up nothing but after scrolling through all of the folders down to the letter “V” I do see the Vault there. Is there an easier way to access this without scrolling through all of the folders?
