Hi all,
Native Apple silicon support is now fully available. All users with Apple silicon devices will receive the native version of Dropbox automatically. If you would like to update your device manually, you can do so by clicking on the latest Stable Build and downloading the Offline Installer (Apple Silicon) file. For more information, visit the Dropbox Help Center.If you need assistance with anything else, please feel free to create a new thread and our community team will be happy to assist.
For those saying that this must be outdated info and that Dropbox is likely already working on it — as a customer who pays a not-small amount of money to them, I just engaged with their support agents on this. And nope… they still aren't confessing to caring about this at all, and said that the best they can do is "tell engineering that customers still want support for the Apple Silicon processors."
This is embarrassing, honestly; there is enough good competition out there that it certainly feels like it's time to take my subscriptions elsewhere.
