Failure to Sync (Android)

Hi, I'd like to report what seems to be a new bug. I'm on a Samsund Galaxy 5 with Android
I"ve been using this app for years and I love it.
It has always been working great on this phone and on my previous phones.
But in the past week or so, I haven't been able to sync with dropbox. Error message: "Synchronizing Failed" when I open the app or when I try to add a new task or when I click "Sync now"
I confirmed that the file is still in its location on Dropbox. I've tried logging the app out of Dropbox and logging back in. I tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling.
When I go to "file location" in the settings, it says "Failed to load folder list from Dropbox"
Perhaps this is something that changed with how Dropbox allows other apps to connect to it? I will look into any settings on the Dropbox end and see if I can find any clues there.
I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem (and if this app is still being updated).
any feedback appreciated!

Believe this is related to the bump in Dropbox's API from v1 to v2. Noticed someone mention that Dropbox turned off the v1 API over the weekend.

Alas has the future caught up with this app?

Same issue happens with the IPhone app!
Any plans to upgrade the Dropbox sync feature?
