Thanks for the post. I don't have a workaround to offer on our side unfortunately, but I'm raising this with the engineering team to see if they can change that behavior. I can't make any promises though.

    Hello, have the engineering team had the opportunity to look into this bug? This is unfortunately still an issue with React Native and it means it's not possible to create apps that support Dropbox (see the GitHub issue there - https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/14445 ) Any chance it is going to be fixed on the Dropbox side?
