Hi bcgirton, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Currently, we're not experiencing any issues with connection to the Dropbox servers.

 

Could you try connecting to a different VPN server to see if this helps?


Keep me updated with any progress!

    As of May 27th, 2023, Drop Box has not auto updated photo files since I activated the Nord VPN mopile app on my Samsung S22 at the beginning of the month.  Also indicated that I'm OFFLINE with WiFi when I am connected.

      Hey mockswede, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

       

      Can you let us know your device's exact OS version and the version of the Dropbox mobile app installed there as well?

       

      Have you tried another wifi or doing it via cellular data perhaps?
