Three devices limit and API access

That's really good news, Greg. We had quite a few customers read the information on the limit and think it applied to them. 

Any chance of getting that page updated to mention that it applies only to Dropbox, and not third-party, applications?

Greg, thanks for that. Just to clarify, do you distinguish specific functions of a 3rd party app (syncing apps vs browsing apps, etc.) for exclusion to the device limit? Example, let's say I'm a multi-cloud syncing app, can a free dropbox user that already has reached the 3 device limit still use that 3rd party app even though it syncs to their device (i.e. i have technically 4 devices to sync using both the dropbox app and the 3rd party app)?

This must be the fastest (and most helpful) response I have ever recieved in the world of tech :)

Thank you very much for the clarification, this was exactly what I was looking for. 

Regards,

Mirce

I tried several times to add DB to my 4th device just so that I can access my eWallet account but I kept getting messages that I had reached the 3 device limit. Since I recently purchased both a new iMac and a new iPad, I had to unlink the old devices and then add those 2 new devices. I also have DB on my iPhone. and I would like to use eWallet on my MacBook Air.

According to the DB statement, you can only keep more than 3 devices if they were already registered PRIOR to March 2019 but I acquired the 2 replacement devices and registered them with DB after April 2019 so it looks as though I can't use all 4 of my devices for DB sync with eWallet.

This is from DB FAQ page:

"If you're a Basic user and you linked more than three devices prior to March 2019, all of your previously linked devices remain linked.

However, if you'd like to link a new device (or re-link a previously linked device), you must unlink all currently linked devices (down to less than three), and then you can link your new devices (up to three)."
