You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

“Couldn’t save content. Check your internet connection and refresh the page." on iOS mobile app
Running iOS 17.3, just updated.
When I try to share content to Dropbox, I get an error message: “Couldn’t save content. Check your internet connection and refresh the page. There’s not internet...

Everyone experiencing this behavior, you should be able to use "Save to Files", when choosing a "Reader PDF", which, using the File Provider, will save just the .pdf, as a workaround.
- Yes saving to files has always worked. This does not allow me to save a reader view to Dropbox. I do not want to have to save things to two different systems.
- Updated to 364.2.4 yesterday. So far the floating side bar elements seems fixed. But the file I saved to Dbx today is missing all the images. Also is there a way to turn off the automatically added Dbx header? It ruins line breaks. So I guess I do need a ticket opened. Thanks!
- For me at least it is saving a html version of the page to a PDF. Previously it saved the reader view if you were using that version in Safari. You can save a reader view as a PDF to files but I can’t save anything except the html version as a PDF to Dropbox.

Hey FireChief 👋🏽
Just wanted to check in and see if you're still having any issues after updating to our latest version 362.7. Let us know!
Thanks,
Sam
- Yes it was upgraded when I replied previously. Before the iOS17 update you were able to save PDFs of the pages as seen in reader view. A black background with white text. No ads, only the text of the page. Now you can save the page but it is saved as it would be seen if it was not in reader view. I am saving the page while looking at it in reader view. Before the last Dropbox update you could not save the page at all. Now you can save the page, but not as you see it in reader view. Now you get a saved version with all the ads and blank white spaces. Just like if you printed a web page years ago before reader view was invented.
I have this same error. I have 362.7 running and IoS 17.3. cannot save pdfs in Safari to DropBox. "couldnt save your content" error...
"Save to Files" has never worked very well at all in IoS for file exploring the "save to" destination - not your fault - but that is why this bug is an important fix
- I just noticed that whether I choose Automatic or Reader PDF when saving from Safari or Pocket on iOS 17.3.1, to Dbx 362.7.4 I get text and sidebar elements overlapping, which makes the document unreadable. This happens whether I am trying to save to Dbx as a regular webpage or from black and white Reader view. I have a photo example but I can't see how to attach it to this post.
So the initial error message/ inability to save from Safari, which was briefly fixed, has been replaced with another problem for me.
thx
