Hi 

 

Similar problem here - Dropbox is showing as occupying 13GB of space on my iphone. I have 36GB left and yet its telling me its full.  Two questions if I may please:

 

1.  Why is it using 13GB and how can I move everything to the Cloud?

2. Why is it telling me my iPhone is full?

 

Thanks!
