Would you mind just trying to sign in to your account via a private browsing window in Safari Andy Snowden?
Also, can you let me know if you get the same error if you try connecting over cellular data instead?

Sorry for the slow response - no I can't get to Dropbox with Safari, or Chrome even. Chrome error shown below. What is going on here?

Additionally - I have just unlinked old devices but I'm still getting the non-secure error message.
The only way I can access Dropbox is via a Windows PC. All ios devices can't connect.

- Andy Snowden5 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi Daphne - private browsing makes no difference, but switching to mobile data only (ie not connecting via wifi) does allow me log in.

I'm glad to hear that Andy Snowden!
Just want to double check with you, are you able to use the WiFi connection for the mobile app without issue now?
