If I delete photos from my camera folder on my phone will they stay in Dropfox Camera Uploads folder?
Hi,
I want to delete photos from my phone to get storage space back. If these have already been synced and in the camera uploads folder in my dropbox they would not get deleted by deleting them on...
If you delete photos from your phone's camera roll, gallery, etc., they will not be deleted from from your Dropbox account. If you delete them from the Dropbox app on your phone, they WILL be deleted from Dropbox, but will stay in your phone's camera roll.
I am confused too!.. I have deleted lots of picture on my cameraroll on my iphone... But hopefully I will keep all the pictures in dropbox????

If you upload from a DROPBOX OFFICIAL application on a mobile to the cloud then delete from your phone they wont delete from cloud. If you use third party ones (including some which almost look identical to Dropbox ones - Samsung Connect for example) then you can find things are deleted.
If you upload via a computer using camera uploads (say) then it work as I said which is a mirror.
