I can't log in to the Dropbox app through my new Android phone

I have a new Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra phone that I got recently. I've had my dropbox account for some time and, every time, I upgrade my phone I've had problems syncing my files onto the new phone. I've ALWAYS had to contact support to fix it. Now, unfortunately, these people find it helpful to just direct paying customers to this forum to ferret out a helpful support reply. I've sent several messages to the email support page with no helpful reply.
I logged in through Google using my email where I have my account and I keep getting prompted to open a new account, even though I already have one. I have gone through and cleared the cache, data, etc., on my phone and still get the same message. I went through and unlinked other devices and still get the same message. I have unistalled and reinstalled the app and that doesn't help either.
Is there someone here that can help?
Please actually READ the above message and refrain from asking me a question already answered above. I don't think they train you to do that in India or Pakistan.
Thank you.

Hey bgeorgen, thanks for posting again.
I moved your new post under the one from yesterday, to keep everything in one place.
Now, let's get to it.Are you only having this issue on the mobile app? How about the website? Are you able to sign in as normal there?
Also, can you confirm that you're using the correct Gmail address associated with your existing Dropbox account?
Thanks.
PS. Your support options do depend on your plan and you can see which ones are available for yours here.
