End-to-end encryption on Dropbox content. How does it work?
Hi are files sent from Mac or iPhone to Dropbox Cloud end-to-end encrypted?

Hi HealthFreak, I hope you're doing well!
Feel free to have a look here, in regards to your question.
If you have more questions, I think the best way for you to have an insight would be to check with the respective app on their end.
Cheers!

Anyway I really just wanted to understand whether this "Boxcryptor for Individuals" would provide better protection for the connection and transfer of files from my Mac/iPhone to Dropbox cloud.. and to iCloud for that matter.

As ROKYRAJ noted, end-to-end encryption (E2EE) is something different and doesn't fit in your question - it's more secure presumably (depends on how is realized). If you mean, is E2EE provided somehow from Dropbox? - No, it doesn't not.
Of course, you are not limited in any way to encrypt your content using third party software (syncing encrypted containers for instance - something very secure and widely used).
I can add here that "Zero knowledge" is form of E2EE. 😉
Hope this helps.
