My App is not working on new device
Hello

You don't need to configure anything on the App Console to get that page to load, even on another device. If the page isn't loading, that likely indicates some network or server issue.

Thanks Greg,
I was running my app on a "new" second hand wiped tablet. I updated to android 7.1.1 from 5.??
and now it opens the auth in a web browser and waits for me to tap Allow. Working ok. Probably as you say some network issue with the tablet. Just wondering why it opens in a Chrome window whereas the original tablet open just the Dropbox API permission. Could this be because the new tablet doesn't have the Dropbox app loaded?
Thanks Greg

Thanks Greg
Appreciate your help
