You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Do all computers in a group or 'Family' need to be set up the same with the new Dropbox beta system?
If I upgrade to the new system and my partner does not upgrade, can we still access each others shared and Family folders?
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for clarifying, jonno_the_fusspot.
In that case, it doesn't really matter if one computer is updated and the other isn't, you can both still access your Dropbox files as normal.

I hope this helps!
Thanks Hannah,
Recently the Dropbox App offered me to try "the Beta Experience for Dropbox for macOS on File Provider is available now". Pretty sure that is not the 'backup experience'.
My partner's mac (macOS Sierra) is too full at the moment so I don't want to change anything on that. My mac is an M2 running Ventura 13.6.6 and has plenty of space on it.
