    Hey Ebensmatik, and welcome to our Community!

     

    Is this something that started happening lately and for all your video/audio files? 

     

    What if you download/export a file to your iPhone? Does the crackling sound stop then? 

     

    Let me know.

        Hey Ebensmatik, I just tested this on my end, but I can't replicate the issue.

         

        Can you open the Dropbox app, tap on "account", then on the gear icon and then on "clear cache", to see if that helps?
