I accidentally hit the "Archive" button on the mobile app while trying to share a Paper doc during an onsite meeting where I didn't have a laptop handy.  I then discovered that when you archive a doc in the mobile app, the app doesn't seem to fully understand that the doc is archived, and it doesn't show you a "Restore" option.

 

After I shook my phone in frustration roaring "KHAAAAAN!" and the app gave me the option to report feedback, Dropbox support advised me that it's not possible to restore a doc from the mobile app and that I'd need to use the website (which I eventually did, after the meeting, when I was back at my computer). 

 

I'd suggest that if you can't restore a doc from the mobile app, the "Archive" option should be removed so that you can't accidentally do something you can't immediately undo.  🙂
