    Hi Schlago, thanks for posting on the Community!

     

    On the new version of iOS, the option to upload files to Dropbox, and other apps, has changed. You’re seeing the Share with Dropbox option, which requires you to enter an email address to post the share.

     

    Tap the share icon on the file in question, and then scroll down the list until you see the option to Save to Dropbox. If you don’t see it there, click ‘Edit actions’ and then select that option so it appears in future.

     

    Let me know how it goes!
