STILL can't get my Dropbox photos to show up in my Android gallery
I've read all the related forum posts dating back to 2012 with no avil.
Problem: I use dropbox mostly for photoshop files and JPG photos. I have many folders and subfolders with pictures and files...

I've got exactly the same problem described above on my huawei p30 pro.
Saving one photo at a time on my device onto "Camera" folder works fine, but saving multiple photos doesnt.

- Yek6 years agoHelpful | Level 5To see all the images you download from dropbox do this:
After downloading, run the "folder explorer" of your device. Navigate to the folder that contains the images. Select one image, doesnt matter how many or which one. Copy and paste it into the same folder. If it asks you whether you want to overwrite/replace the existing images just pick "skip". Your device will then somehow update this folder and they will be visible in the images app. (If skip doesnt work try to overwrite)- quantompop6 years agoNew member | Level 2Incredible! This actually worked. Thank you.
