    We recently upgraded the syncing experience between the Files and Dropbox and it should be more reliable now.  Ensure that your Dropbox app is upgraded to receive the full benefits of this experience!

Hi AM1981, I’m sorry to hear about this. 

 

Since I understand that you may have been in touch with our support, do you mind sending over your ticket number, so that I can take a look? 

 

Also, can you please clarify what’s the exact OS version that you’re running on your iOS device? 

 

Thanks!

    Thanks for sending over your ticket number! I appreciate it. 

     

    Can you let me know if you also cleared your mobile app’s cache, before reinstalling it? You should be able to do this via the app’s settings. 

     

    Besides that, I’d like you to send me the Dropbox app’s version that should be showing on the same page.

        Hey AM1981, sorry to jump in here and happy Friday!

         

        Would you mind letting us know what troubleshooting steps you've already tried?

         

        Like, have you tried to uninstall the Dropbox app, restart your device and then reinstall it?

         

        Have you made sure that you have enough free memory on your device? The Dropbox app needs about 500 mb of free memory to work correctly.

         

        What else did you try on your end?
