"Display Limit Reached" message when trying to view my photos
Hi---
I keep all my photos on Dropbox. It's usually great-- I open the app and scroll back and go back literally years and years and years. If I want to see a photo from November 2014, I could ...
Ooh good to know. Maybe Google is the way to go. Do you know how to do a massive (I mean like 200k photos) file transfer from Dropbox to Google??

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey guys, I hope you're doing well!
Keep in mind that due to performance reasons, we have a limit in place on mobile to only load 100,000 photos and then any new photos after that.
For the web this shouldn't be the case and you should be able to see all your photos. Your photos are definitely still there, we just might not load them onto the photos tab.
I hope this clarifies.
- Since when? This didn’t used to be an issue.
And I still can’t load them in my files tab either.
Please fix this.
Come on. - Nope. They are less than helpful.
- Hi aa592
I have signed up to product called pCloud. It has an option to automatically transfer everything from your Dropbox. It took a couple of days for my transfer to complete. But as I was hoping would be the case, the photos tab in pCloud allows me to scroll through and see every one of my photos (over 170,000 photos), like we used to be able to in Dropbox. Thought I would let you know in case you are still frustrated with the changes Dropbox made. - Hey Kate! Thanks for the info. I’ll check it out for sure! 😄
- Note: I plan to keep Dropbox because I use it for other things. But I will use pCloud for photos.
