Integration with iOs Files app dropping out
I am running an iPad Pro (3rd generation) with iOs 15.1, but I had the same problem with previous versions of iOs as well. I have two issues.

Hello
I have the exact same problem, both on my iPad (Pro 5th gen) and iPhone (12 mini), both running iOS 15.5.
The problem started one year ago, on the iPad ne the iPhone when I reluctantly upgraded them from the antiquated iPad Air 2 and iPhone SE, both running some version of iOS 14. The irony being that since this switch, my workflow has diminished because of that Dropbox issue.
I have tried deleting the app completely, and reinstalling it and desynchronising my Dropbox account from File. Nothing helped. I took the devices to an Apple Store, they ran a diagnostic but it came back clear.
I saw that multiple people in this feed were contacted directly by mail, and have since vanished. I assume a fix must have been found. Care to share ? 🙂
- MissPaulette3 years agoHelpful | Level 6No Nicowegg, they have not resolved the problem yet. They asked if it is okay to contact me via email, but never followed up.
Kindest regards,

Hello all, happy Friday!
I just reached out to you via email, and I'll be happy to see you there.
Cheers!
- jonbader3 years agoHelpful | Level 6Hi all. I have had some email contact from dropbox out this issue we are all having. Unfortunately it has been a very predictable interaction with dropbox basically passing the buck to apple and not taking any responsibility for the issue. I pointed out that it could be an apple and Dropbox issue but that dropbox as a platform would stand a better chance of getting apple to cooperate than us as single end users. No luck as yet with getting them to do anything constructive.

Hi there again.
I can see on here and in other various forums that there is many having this same issue across the files app and Dropbox. Have there been concluded on anything or is there any quickfix in place at this point. This absolutely disrupt my work flow and I am starting to question if dropbox is the right solution. I have been a dropbox subscriber for a lot of years almost since the very start.
