Apps and Installations

Recently got a Pixel 7 (upgraded from 3A where everything worked fine). Dropbox is installed and logged in.
Trying to get logged in to Dropbox Passwords app. I hit the "Sign in with Dropbox" button, it takes me to a permissions screen ("Dropbox Passwords for Android would like access to the files and folders in your Dropbox"). I hit Allow. It says "Checking your status", then an error box pops up: "Oops! An error has occurred, please try again later."
I have now installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the Passwords up at least a dozen times. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Dropbox app. Rebooted the phone. Always the same results. How can I get the Passwords app to log in?
Thanks, Jess! I just emailed you, so I'll see you there.

Hey RahulT,
To clarify, it's the app 'dropbox passwords' not working, instead of you forgetting your dropbox account password?
Yes, It's "dropbox passwords" app not working, not password of dropbox account.
Hey @RahulT, welcome to our Community!
Can you please send me a screenshot of the exact error you're getting and clarify how many devices you've linked to your Dropbox Passwords account?
Let me know!

Previously I had only one device linked to my dropbox passwords app.
From my new device, I logged out all the devices logged in from my dropbox account.
For screenshot, I'm not able to take screenshot from my mobile as it is showing ( Taking screenshots isn't allowed by the app).
But the error message I'm getting is
"Oops!
Error has occurred, Please try again later."
I tried so many times to login yet getting the same error message.
Hi @RahulT, so, just for clarification, you tried to login on the new phone in the Dropbox Passwords app, but it didn't work. You then logged out of all other devices for the Dropbox Passwords app, and then you tried to login on the new phone, is that correct?
Did you save your recovery words in order to login to your account?
