    Dropbox uploads identical photos BUT it displays previews on the website, so, if you are using that make sure you download the actual file and not the preview.

    Can we please have an option to choose if we want the images to be viewd by full quality or by lower quality in android? This is very important sometimes we can't even download the images because they are view only

    Yes. I think it is good to at least have the option on the app.
