How do I keep Dropbox from automatically capturing the photos on my iPhone?

How do I keep Dropbox from automatically capturing the photos on my I-phone. I do not want them on Dropbox bc it takes up all my space and I do not want to buy more?

    Hey there, Cookie356, thanks for posting here today! 

     

    Based on the situation that you described, it sounds like you have camera uploads enabled on your iPhone, is that right? 

     

    If you're referring to something else, don't hesitate to clarify. Here is how you can disable the feature. 

     

    I hope this helps!
