Live Photos are still not being uploaded on iOS
According to this other thread, the feature has been delivered but the iOS app still doesn't support Live Photos from camera uploads. Photos are still uploaded as static images. What am I missing?

So it's not possible to upload live photos through Camera Uploads. They have to be uploaded manually.
The page you linked to says:
- Camera uploads aren’t available on the Dropbox mobile app for iOS.
Why is the request in the other thread I linked marked as delivered then? They are obviously referring to camera uploads when they say "automatic upload".- Jay
Thanks for the info from the article, we appreciate this feedback.
Currently, Live Photos is only available for manual uploads via the Dropbox mobile app.
We take all comments into consideration when improving the Dropbox app and services.
