Dropbox passwords no caps lock on Android

Samsung S24 Ultra
when inputting a new password on dropbox passwords, caps lock (double tapping shift key) appears to work but when I tap the next key it gets shut off
i have never seen any instance of this type of behavior anywhere else and i am attempting to try and see if it is an S24 issue or a dropbox passwors issue

(first time poster here, not sure where to submit this, if this is not the place please tell me where)

    Hi idnoboutha!
    I just had a look and it seems like it's an issue with the password obfuscation.
    Can you confirm that the issue does not persist if you show the password in cleartext?

    Hey there idnoboutha - thanks for flagging this with us.

     

    Could you let us know the exact OS version of your device and the version of the Dropbox Passwords mobile app you're using there?

     

    Also, have you tried rebooting your device and logging out of the app and back in since you first noticed this?

     

    Keep us posted!
