Dropbox StaffHi Joshydubs, let's jump right into this!
As a first step, I'd like to know if you're downloading these files using a shared link, or if they exist in your Dropbox account. Provided that you're doing it a different way, feel free to let me know.
Do you use the mobile app on your phone, or the browser?
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

Hi Joshydubs, you mentioned that when you used a different device, the files didn't have any issues when you tried to export them, right?
If you preview these files online, do you have any issues with the way they look? Have you tried a different browser, to download the files by any chance?
- Hi so if I export them to my Samsung s20 they are fine however I can't send them on Facebook messenger atoll and if I send them via WhatsApp or upload them to Instagram or even to an video editing app they then loose the colour aswell so although I can download and watch them on the Samsung s20 I can't do anything with them so there's still an issue there I've tried on the app and other browsers ect
