Thanks for the heads up, and the screenshot Timro.

That's odd. When did this first start happening? 

If I were you, I'd also try to clear the app's cache (you can do this by accessing the app, clicking the gear icon on the top right part, and if you scroll to the bottom the option should be there) and try again. 

While you're at it, you might want to reboot your device too. 

Let me know if you still get the same results.

Hiya. Just tried that and it's still the same. It's doing the same on my Lenovo tablet too. It's only started happening this last week and I've used DB for years. My current mobile is 4½ years old! It only happens if I use the save as with the Dropbox option, saying the app is disabled.
