Towards the end of 2020 and I thought life is miserable enough with pandemic around the world. Woke up late in the morning to find my iPhone X’s battery flat hence no alarm. The phone was switch to flight mode and background app refresh was disabled for Dropbox. From “Battery Usage” statistics, Dropbox was top of the list showing “-”. Switching to “Activity” statistics, that’s where I saw Dropbox still top of the list, showing “59m” throughout the night.
Like some has pointed out, it seems to be iOS issue letting Dropbox to run in background despite setting has disallowed it. Suggest Dropbox to fix this soon. I didn’t face this battery issue until last night. This matter may spread wider suddenly, shunning users from productive use of the app, and their phone.- RememberTilman4 years agoHelpful | Level 5

Do we need to send a link to news sources to get anyone to pay attention?
