Title: Dropbox v1 API is retired
Post by: Djsly on July 18, 2018, 12:48:16 AM
This is breaking the backup feature.
I just got a new device and would like to transfer over my backup using Dropbox.

Will you be updating to the new Ali version for Dropbox ?

No, you can still use backup feature through iTunes. So it does not break it, just limits the functionality in a significant way ;]

Yes, we have plans to implement Dropbox API V2 in the future. Please note that the future is clouded ;]

Thanks for the link. I was trying to avoid connecting iTunes. I hate iTunes.

Btw. Don't you want to accept a few helper ?  Fixing Dropbox API could be a nice feature that someone not too familiar with iMtG could tackle. Would help keeping the app updated while offloading you a bit.

so I transferred from iTunes, freshly backed up binders.imtgbackup and decks.imtgbackup from my old device and I tried to restore them.

Both operation makes the app crash.  I guess we can add to the list of broken feature the restore of backups :( bummer.

It was fun all along.

I have love-hate relationship with iTunes :P

Sure I'd love a helping hand, are you able to connect via linkedin so we can talk about it seriously? https://www.linkedin.com/in/piotrfarbiszewski/

Were you able to recover the crash logs?
