    Sorry to hear that missh. 

    This is how to turn camera uploads on or off on iOS (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch):

    1. Open the Dropbox mobile app.
    2. Tap Dropbox on the bottom of the screen.
    3. Tap Camera Uploads.
    4. Toggle Camera Uploads to off.

    I hope this helps!

    This does not help. There are no Dropbox on the bottom of the screen. Why don’t you post a picture as to what specifically we need to tap

    Welcome to the Community Udar!

    I'm sorry these instructions might seem a bit off - they're referring to an older version of our mobile app.

    The current steps are these:

    1. Open the Dropbox mobile app.
    2. Tap on your account's settings on the bottom right of the screen.
    3. Look for Camera Uploads.
    4. Toggle it to off.

    If you're still not finding it, please forward me a screenshot of how the mobile app's interface looks like on your end so I can help further.
