Need to see if your shared folder is taking up space on your dropbox 👨💻? Find out how to check here.
I want my lives to automatically save on DropBox and then when I come to DropBox and download it to my apple products I can still see them as Lives.

Yes, the Google Photos app does & has for quite a while. Here's an article from 2016 about it -> https://www.tomsguide.com/us/back-up-live-photos-google-photos,news-22359.html
It would be great to have this in Dropbox. I'm sure there are business and technical considerations, but it's been years & folks at Google, Apple & more recently Nextcloud have figured out ways to offer support -> https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-coherence-for-ios-a-completely-new-look-live-photo-support-new-image-pdf-viewer-quick-look-option-and-more/

I agree. I would love to stick to Dropbox only as well. Does google now support automatic live pic backup form their phone app?

Hannahlike Pt08 said there have been MANY threads over the years about this, they get locked after a period of time and we more threads get opened, as if this is somehow a new request. The 5 votes here are not representative. There are many more users who want this feature.
I'm a long time Dropbox user who also uses Google to backup photos because I need live photo upload and backup. I'm trying to justify paying for both services and frankly it doesn't make sense. I've love to drop Google and use Dropbox exclusively.

Hey Pt08, thanks for posting here.
I've moved your post under this similar idea that already exists.
Feel free to up-vote it and let me know if you have any questions!

I have seen many post over the years on this and I wanted to know if this is even been pick up to be developed. I have not renewed dropbox for a long time as this is the main feature I am looking for. When would this be available?
