It should work on both Intel and M1 processors. I've changed the script to make it work, how I get the latest stable version number is not pretty but it works. Hi and checked the script again and the reason that it doesn't work is because of how Dropbox publishes the dmg, the URL has changed.

The script works as an Dropbox updater too (if the built in updater doesn't work)! #!/bin/bash

I changed download URL, unmount behavior and added functions and checks I tried the script too and it didn't work.
