Unable to find/install the app

    Hi everyone! (yabo jsml Megan Jay)

     

    Thanks for your patience while we looked into this. At this time, we're currently investigating an issue with the installer link redirecting improperly. 

     

    In the meantime, feel free to use one of these direct installer links for Dropbox Dash below (depending on your computer's platform):


    •  (Mac): mac.x86_64
    • ❖ (Windows): win.x86_64
     

    Feel free to reach out to the support team using this link if any further troubleshooting assistance is needed. Thanks again!

I have two Macbooks. One has the Dropbox Dash desktop app installed. The other one, I can only get to the Chrome extension. There seems to be no download link available for the desktop app. I keep going through the connection/install pages over and over, but it stops after the Chrome extension is installed. How can I get Dropbox Dash installed on my other desktop? Unfortunately, I did not save a DMG and cannot go from there.

Hi jsml, happy Thursday! 

 

If you access this Help Center article & scroll to the bottom where it says "How to use the Dropbox Dash desktop app" or try this link, do you have the option to download the app? 

 

Let me know, and we'll take it from there!

    Megan, thanks for replying. Unfortunately neither of those links are helpful. The first one doesn’t actually say how to get the desktop app. The second one, as I mentioned, only takes me to connecting apps and installing a chrome extension. It does not offer an app after that.

        Thank you! It's actually been an issue for quite some time, I only now got really motivated to post a question about it because I quite like the app! May I suggest that you make those download links publicly and easily available?
