Are you following the steps exactly in order to attach a file from Dropbox?
What device and OS are you using currently?

When you say Android, can you clarify the exact version of your Android DAVEN L.?
Have you also tried the steps mentioned here?
Also, it would be of great help if you could attach some step-by-step screenshots of what you see on your end. If you have any issues attaching the screenshot, can you try sending it over using a computer, and not your mobile device?

Hi,

I had to remove all your images due to your email and phone number being visible.
It looks like the Dropbox interface isn't showing up, and instead the built in Samsung files page for Dropbox appears. I have the exact same phone, and don't get the same behavior.
If you're not on a Dropbox Basic plan with more than 3 devices connected, could you try uninstalling the Dropbox app, rebooting the device, and re-installing it to see if this helps?
