I have the exact same issue on my Pixel 5. It's very annoying (especially for the price for a Pro user).

Hey robertkovax, welcome to our Community! 

 

Would you mind clarifying your exact OS, and the version of the Dropbox app you're using on your end? 

 

When did this start happening on your end? I'm asking, because based off of previous communications, and updates the issue seems to have been fixed for now.

 

Keep me posted!

    Hi there, I have the same issue on my Pixel 7 Pro.

     

    OS: Android version 14

    App version: 366.2.2

     

    Any progress on fixing this bug? It's been consistently a problem for as long as I've had my Android device. Previous device was iPhone X and I didn't have this problem.  

    Thanks,

      Hey HFP - sorry to hear about this.

       

      Could you clear the app's cache, log out and back in to your account and try again?

       

      Let us know how it goes!
