Thanks.
I am on the Dropbox Basic plan (the free version), but have less than three devices connected. Do you want me to uninstall the app, reboot and re-install anyway? Please confirm
I assume no files will get lost if uninstall the app by using the "delete app" commando on my iPhone, or do I need to make a back-up of the files? Please confirm

Yes, if you have less than 3 devices linked, please follow the steps I provided. No files on your Dropbox account will be affected.
Bear in mind that any offline copies of your files in the Dropbox mobile app will need to be marked as offline again when you reinstall the app.
