If you're syncing to Dropbox using the original Todo app you'll notice the app reporting the following message:
" The old version of the Dropbox platform is being retired on June 28, 2017. The developer of this app has yet to acknowledge the change, so this app may not continue to work in the future. "
What this means is that you'll no longer be able sync via Dropbox using the standalone Todo app due to the app being deprecated and there are no further updates planned. We recommend making the switch to Todo Cloud.
