I have an issue with Dropbox’s failure to sync when outside.

  • Hi @wkleem,

    This same setup works when connected to WiFi?

    It appears so. I am nowhere near wifi now. Will report back later.

    Thanks.

    I can confirm this does not happen within a wifi network but happens when I am in a public area.

    @wkleem,

    Is it possible your cell provider is blocking access to Dropbox? Are you able to access files through the Dropbox app while connected to cellular (no WiFi)?

    Also please check that you have cellular data enabled for 1Password:

    Settings.app > Cellular Data > 1Password > On

    @Ben,

    Yes. I did not think to check in Cellular Data (called Mobile Data) on my phone and it was off.

    Thanks.

  • That would do it. Thanks for the update. :)
