Add Updating to the Android Dropbox app

I have a file that is listed as modified 2 weeks ago, but I modified it on a Windows computer and the update was listed there as completed.

But on the Android device, it is listed as modified 2 weeks ago. I pulled down from the top of the Dropbox page and got a refresh spinner, but the file is still listed as modified 2 weeks ago.

Developers, please do the right thing and give us an Update button or the equivalent functionality for Android.

I think I wasn't clear: I edited the file today, 10 minutes ago, on Windows. Android Dropbox shows and edits the old file, not the new one.

Hey @David S.178, thanks for reaching out to us again.

Can you please clarify if you're editing the contents of the files in question or if you're just editing the names of the files?

A file's modified date should update on all devices and dropbox.com, if you edit the file in your Dropbox account or another user edits the file in a shared folder.

Is this not what you see on your end?

Let me know.

Hannah

Hey @David S.178, did you get a chance to check my reply above?
