Hi JGersh, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Are you able to tap the notifications individually to mark them as read on the device?

If you're not on a Dropbox Basic plan with more than 3 devices connected, could you try uninstalling the app, rebooting the device, and re-installing it to see if this helps?

I marked all read & only 1 was marked. They are all the same message about tax time. I can’t get the **bleep** thing to go away, why?????
This is a real pain, came with last update.
