Hi Lori,
An update for you. One of your support team (Jake) had me uninstall both Dropbox and Dropbox Passwords on my phone, turn off the phone completely and then restart. Then reinstall Dropbox followed by Dropbox Passwords. This fixed the issue.
I am happy to talk to you via email but my ask is that the development team take a look at what is going on with updates as clearly my app worked before and something "broke". Jake seemed to be aware of the potential issue and to his credit it was a quick fix. However (and I've worked in software development) it would make more sense if you alerted folks to the correct way to apply an update if it cannot be done automatically. I have my phone set to receive updates and apply automatically so I am always current on apps.
Thanks,
Dave
