Thank you for your updates here and for everyone's patience!
I just have a small update to share with you, that the team are aware of this issue and our engineers are looking into this.
We don't currently have an ETA on a fix for this, however the suggested work around would be to disable Dropbox within the Files app to prevent battery usage on your device.
I'll be sure to keep you all updated here with any news that I receive on this, especially for those who might not have a ticket open with the Support team for this.
If you have any questions, please give me a nudge here and I'd be happy to help.
Hope you all have a great weekend ahead!
