How can I give microphone permission to Dropbox on my iOS device?

When I hit 'Record Audio' in the Dropbox widget on my iPhone, it asks me to enable microphone permissions in:


Settings > Privacy > Microphone

 

This route does not exist on my iPhone 12 / IOS 17

 

How can I enable the microphone for audio recording?

    Hey mickglossop, thanks for posting to our Community.

     

    Can you try Settings > Dropbox > Microphone instead, to see if that helps?

     

    Keep me posted!
