SwiftyDropbox & Dropbox Saver (v2 API)
Is "Dropbox Saver" available, in Swift or Obj-C for iOS? I can't seem to find iOS Swift/Obj-C Dropbox Saver use in the SwiftyDropbox documentation, only for HTML (though it was originally plann...
We don't currently have a native Saver for iOS, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
However, note that the official Dropbox app registers as an iOS "Document Picker" with the following modes, if you can/want to use that:
UIDocumentPickerModeImport
UIDocumentPickerModeExportToServiceIf you're using the Dropbox API though (e.g., via SwiftyDropbox) and want to go through the production review before releasing to any users, you can request an "early review". You can find more information on that here:

Thanks Greg,
I am using that as well, however I want to upload *multiple* files at the same time and the Dropbox app extension (still!) doesn't support that :). It's a good answer though.
I'm not sure how many topics I want to spawn in these forums - should I ask each question as a new topic (if I can't find the answer)? (e.g. if the user deletes the entire app folder, it seems to stop working for the user and seemed difficult to get working again; additionally, could/has someone put in a feature request that the Dropbox app would handle multiple file uploads - cache them itself and upload them, taking care of if we're on cellular or wifi, etc.?)
Thanks again.

- Greg-DBThanks for elaborating! Unfortunately I don't have a solution to offer for handling multiple files at a time, short of using the API itself. I've filed this as a feature request though.
Also, please do go ahead and open one thread per issue or request you have. That will help us keep track of them.
