Your cell phone and computer don't link together. Each one links separately to your Dropbox account. In order to see the same files on both, just make sure that you're signed in to the same Dropbox account on both.

 

If needed, uninstall the Dropbox app from your phone and reinstall it. Sign in with the same email address you used to sign in to Dropbox on your computer.
