    You should be able to open the iPhone app.
    Click on the big +
    Click 'Upload Photos'
    That defaults to the camera roll, but, if you click on the word 'Camera Roll' at the top you can change it to another album.
    There you simply click on each photo you want to upload (you do need to click each one I'm afraid) and then press 'Upload'.

Hi. Can someone tell me the most efficient way to move a large number of photos/videos (5-10,000 items) from iOS (photos app) to my Dropbox Business account? I tried to “select all” from an album in iOS Photos then “share” to Dropbox but assuming my phone can’t handle that because the app just hangs for a while then stops without making a transfer. Possibly a 3rd party app available to handle such task? Thanks in advance!!

Hey deeJ715, welcome to the Dropbox Community! 

You should be able to manually upload the desired content, if you follow these steps. 

Can you give this a go, and let me know if you have any questions?
