Dropbox StaffThanks for the feedback Steve. We unfortunately had to remove this functionality in order to support users using the Google Sign In flow to sign in to Dropbox when authorizing a Dropbox API app. Google is dropping support for processing their OAuth flow in web views. We do have information about this in the release notes for 3.0.11.
And thanks for pointing out the outdated documentation. The "web view" there is now referring to the SFSafariViewController. I'll ask the team to update that.
I guess you're hands are tied if Google has made the change. I'll investigate adjusting the browser chrome to better simulate the in-app web view.
