Hi AnnieX, and thanks for posting here!
Can you please clarify for me what you mean when saying that Dropbox Capture shows you the last screen you’d taken a screenshot from? Do you mean that it looks kinda stuck for a few seconds on the same screen, even after saving the screenshot?
Have you tried to turn the feature off and on again to see if it makes any difference?
Keep me updated.

Hello again @Nancy! Unfortunately this fix is very temporary. After about five screenshots, it goes back to doing this whole thing.

Hey AnnieX, sorry to jump in here, but have you tried reinstalling the Dropbox Capture app since you first noticed this?
