I received an e-mail from Dropbox warning that "your app(s) TuneLab Tuning Files have recently made calls to the Dropbox API using a deprecated TLS protocol version." I thought we had updated both our iOS and Android versions over a year ago. I suppose it is possible that some users of our apps have not updated in all that time, but I would like to know if there is any test I could run to see whether or not the latest versions of my apps are using the deprecated protocol. My inspection of the Android code shows the external library of com.dropbox.core:dropbox-core-sdk:3.1.5, which should be OK. And the iOS code uses cocopods and references ObjectiveDropboxOfficial and a README.MD that says "The Official Dropbox Objective-C SDK for integrating with Dropbox [API v2] " which should be OK too. The source files are dated 11/3/2020. So that should be OK too. But I don't trust this as proof that my apps are not using the deprecated protocol. So how can I run a test to know for sure? Is there a way I can simulate April 13th now? Or monitor traffic? The e-mail I got from Dropbox has got me worried.
