I've deleted the search history in each app, I dont see a clear cache option in Gmail or Outlook?
I've just tried in the Outlook app, going "Attach a file" then "Device" instead of "Dropbox" , and under device it then allows me to access Dropbox with all the correct files showing! Why wouldnt it show in the dropbox option?
I've tried in the gmail app and can view and navigate to the files, but still get the same error message "Unable to Attach File" message.
