Can I save multiple photos from Dropbox to the camera roll on my iPhone?
Is there a way to save multiple images to my camera roll all at one time on my iphone. I am using drop box a lot but have to click on every image and view it individually before I can save it to my camera roll. This is incredibly time consuming. Is there any way using the app or website to just click the folder and move it to my camera roll?

"Files" is an Apple app in and of itself (part of iOS 11) that allows you to connect to other cloud storage systems all in a single app. You can add your Dropbox account to it (along with other cloud service accounts) and access them all in a single application along with files that are stored on your phone from other applications.
If you select Save to Files you can easily select multiple photos from your Camera Roll and upload them to Dropbox.
Four photos selected; choose Save to FilesOnce in Files, select your Dropbox account

- Col39 years agoNew member | Level 2Iv deleted my Dropbox account and won't be using it again.
As soon as making money comes into it you've made it difficult to use so trying to force upgrades.
I'm afraid I don't like your methods of making a few pounds so I won't be using drop box again.
I hope everyone else does what I am as they're are plenty of free sites out there that aren't trying to scam they're users. - valdo6199 years agoNew member | Level 2

- Bunny12348 years agoExplorer | Level 4You won't hear much from them and if you do it will be word twisting and rubbish as rusty is correct.
- Bunny12348 years agoExplorer | Level 4They're hoping we all just go away and stop asking as they know what they've done. Rusty has the right idea.

It has been two years since Exporting multiple photos to camera roll at once has been requested.
Nothing done yet!
:(
- jt58 years agoHelpful | Level 5The craziest part is that this feature to upload multiple photos from the camera scroll was ALWAYS available - until the app updates we were forced to used!! Which is extremely inconvenient for the users and is probably a bad move - since uploading from Camera Roll 1-1000 photos in an instant is much faster and easier to use than any other app option, PLUS the user will automatically use more space with this feature!! Why remove something everyone repeatedly for years has used for the app, that also reduces the amount of storage of the photos, useless other applications of competition like MS or iPhone apps forced this horrible idea... all I’m pointing out is that if we the users are constantly asking FOR THE FEATURE TO BE BROUGHT - BACK - INTO usage - AND your clearly losing money based on LESS usage being filled - shouldn’t this be a priority to have...
