    Hi JediKaiti

     

    Thanks for posting!

     

    Have you checked out Dropbox's old versions database? 

     

    https://dropbox.en.uptodown.com/android/old

    Hope this helps

I downloaded an older version for my Motorola Xoom because my tablet was not compatible with the newer versions.  At least it will let me sign in but then tells me my Dropbox is out of date and to go to Google Play to download the latest version which does not work.

Dropbox depreciated a lot of older API versions a few months ago.

Unfortunately if you cannot download a newer version you will need to just use the Dropbox mobile website.
