Since version 316.2.2 for Iphone and Ipad I keep getting the message “upload failed. Your file has not been uploaded. Please check your files and try again”. I have already logged out and also uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Without result. Cache deleted too.

Hey GeertS, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

Thanks so much!

Hello Walter
Thank you for your response. See 2 screenshots of the message I get. How do I upload? For example I get a pdf file in an email: i open the pdf-file. Then I choose the icon “with square and arrow”. Then I choose “save to dropbox” and I choose the correct folder in Dropbox. Then “save”. I useDropbox for many years and I never had that problem. I use de Dutch version (Belgium). Thank you Walter

That's apparently happening with any type of file on iOS. I'm from Brazil, and it's been already 3 or 4 days without being able to uplad a single file, of any kind, on my iPhone. And we can't find proper help anywhere or either report it besides here.
EDIT: Oh, and I've already tried deleting and re-installing the app.
- AmineParis2 years agoHelpful | Level 5There is a new version of the iPhone that has just been released. I will download it try again (16.3.1)
