Need to see if your shared folder is taking up space on your dropbox đšâđ»? Find out how to check here.
The idea is not to rely in manually uploading all the time. I want to keep my pictures backed up in case of phone loss or damage, but the names are important as I keep the media backups in multiple places and if the names don't coincide, reconciliation is a hassle.
I often end up having to double upload and compare pictures manually so I can see if any of them are missing, and delete the ones with names altered by the Dropbox app. This feels like unnecessary work altogether.

Thank you for your suggestion, and if you have another idea to share, please do!
Iâm a heavy user of Dropbox and love it!
That said, itâs completely beyond me that this team thinks itâs a good idea to willy-nilly rename files in camera upload without even an option to turn this off. Come on guys, if you canât implement this renaming feature with a little flexibility for users, then at least have the decency to add in option to turn it off.
Keep original file names and date time of creation photos.
