The top of my iPad screen disappears when opening Dropbox
Hi. When I open Dropbox on my iPad, the iPad top menu with the date, hour and battery level disappears. Is this a known issue? Google wasn't very helpful. I'm on the latest version of iOS and Dro...
Thanks for the additional info, Capellmeister.
It might be an iOS issue, but just to check, can you also delete the Dropbox app, restart the device and then reinstall it and let me know what you find?

Dear Hannah. I did what you suggested and the problems seems to be solved! Hurray! Thank you!
- Just to inform you that the problem came back. However, this occurs only when I use Dropbox offline, without internet connection.

Hey Capellmeister - sorry to jump in here, but could you clarify your device's OS version and the version of the mobile app installed there as well?
Could you try using another network or cellular data perhaps?
While we're at it, have you tried adjusting your home screen via the palette icon to see if that helps improve matters?
