how to save bank statements to Dropbox
Hi,
It doesn't seem like my question fits exactly into any of the categories. My credit union's website hasn't been working well lately, so I can't log on with my computer and download account ...

Hello Jay,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, just like you stated, I did not see the option "Save to my Dropbox" available anywhere, so the only options I could find were those undesired "sharing" icons, so I kept looking through those to find what I needed. Today I tried opening my banking app again on my phone, and went to the account statements. This time after I clicked to view the PDF with Dropbox, I did see an option at the bottom of the screen, "Save to my Dropbox," and I was able to use that to save the file to a folder of my choosing. So that's very good! As long as that option will always pop up for me in these cases in the future, then my problem is solved. If I run into the same problem again later, then perhaps I will just reinstall the Dropbox app on my phone to eliminate any possible glitches. Thank you for your help!

It looks like you're trying to share the file via Dropbox, and not add it to your Dropbox account.
When you preview a PDF file, you should get an option at the bottom to 'Save to my Dropbox'. Do you see that option when you immediately preview the file? I don't see this image in your reply.
