Is linking necessary to download files?
Is it possible to download files from my app folder (Dropbox) to my app without linking an account? If so, how would I do that?

You just need to call credentialStoreForUserID once to get your access token/secret, which you can do anywhere in the app, as long as the account is already linked. That would look like:
MPOAuthCredentialConcreteStore *creds = [[DBSession sharedSession] credentialStoreForUserId:@"12345"];
NSLog(@"access token key: %@ secret: %@", creds.accessToken, creds.accessTokenSecret);
(Where 12345 is your user ID.)
