The Files app in my iPad won't sync/update my files
Integration Affected Files Device iPad Pro 2nd gen. Operating System/Browser (if using the web) iPadOS 18.7.3 Dropbox App Version (if using the app) 454.2 Question or Issue The files app doesn't show new folders/files added to Dropbox in the last few months.

Enable ipadOS Dropbox app for Apple Vision Pro
Dropbox had to explicitly deny iPadOS app from installation on AVP as iPadOS apps are compatible and enabled by default. More than a year later and Dropbox still continues to keep the app blocked. At this point I will have to look at migrating to a different vendor for my cloud storage. I have yet to come up with any reasonable reason why Dropbox would make the decision to block their iPad app from installation on Apple Vision Pro.
My macOS Dropbox desktop app is stuck "reconnecting".

At the bottom of the dropdown window from the menu bar is a message stating, translating from Italian, "reconnection in progress. this could take...". It stays like this forever, even after a system restart or an app quit and relaunch. It doesn't sync, it doesn't let me copy links. What can I do?
