Please remove the scroll bar on the mobile app

Could you please remove the scroll bar? It gets in the way. When I open Dropbox to download a file I just uploaded, I have to wait a few seconds for the scroll bar to disappear.

It's a mobile app for touchscreens. Why do we need a scroll bar, anyway? The entire screen is a scroll bar.

    Hi Mikeylectro, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    We're not experiencing this issue on our devices. What device and OS are you running?

     

    Could you attach a screenshot or a short video showing what you're describing?

     

    Also, could you explain why the scroll bar is affecting your use of the app?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    Hi Mikeylectro - thank you for bringing this up! I agree it does linger a bit longer than necessary and can see how that is obstructing your workflow.

     

    We've gotten similar feedback elsewhere and are working on fixing this, thank you!

    I'm not sure why it's needed on a touchscreen in the first place. Seems like one of those things that were just added because we couldn't think of anything else new to add.
