    Hey tbox, welcome to our forum!

     

    Can you send me the app version that your Dropbox app is running on your phone? 

     

    Also, I’d like you to clear the app’s cache via its settings and reinstall it on your device, before trying to set a passcode again. 

     

    Let me know how this goes.

Thanks for your reply Nancy.

 

I am using version 280.2.2 of the app and I did as you suggested. That seems to fix the problem for me.

 

Thanks again!

That’s great to hear, tbox!

 

If you need anything else, I’ll be around the forum.

 

Cheers!
