The app will keep getting automatically updated, but you can always keep an eye out on this page, with all the new releases!

hi hannah,
will the app inform me about the updates?
i have not seen such notifications in the past.
i really prefer to know if and when and what an app does on my computer...
best wishes, kai

What is the behavior you've been seeing so far regarding this, Kai? Have you been getting notifications on what's changing on the app each time it updates?

like is said. no notifications regarding updates. but about changes of content.
notifications are all turned on.

In general, the Dropbox desktop application would update silently in the background in order to ensure the app functions correctly with new updates and changes.

so dropbox does not notify me if an update is being made?
can i still somehow do updates manually? i don't like it at all when apps update without me knowing... - Jay2 years agoDropbox Staff
Currently, there isn't a method to prevent the app from updating automatically, to switch it to manual updating, at this time.
