I use Dropbox app on android phone. When I open a file which I want to read only, it automatically opens on Word app. How to remove this default so that all doc files are read only through Dropbox app and not opened on Word app? Thanks

Hi, @Tristan8384 ,

 

Try to go to your Dropbox app > Settings > Manage default apps to see if there's any setting applied to docx files.

 

Cheers
