    Hey dpwct, let me jump in here as well.

    There's no difference in how long you can keep files stored in your Dropbox account or backup.

    But the backed up files cannot be shared.

    If you want to share those files, you'll need to add them to your local Dropbox folder.

    I hope this helps!

Hi dpwct, 

May I know if you are referring about the camera uploads  backup feature that is set up or enabled from your mobile phone, so the photos/videos you take from your phone will go straight to your Dropbox account under the default folder " Camera Uploads" ? If you can let us know where these apple photos are backed up from ( either from your computer or from your mobile device). Thank you.
