Hi Dropbox. 

 

If I delete photos on my native Photos app on my iPhone or on my Mac, will they delete off the Dropbox Photos as well? I would like ideally for this to happen.

When I delete photos from my native Photos app on my iPhone or Mac, will they also delete off the Dropbox Photos backup?

Hi @TXMedStudent, thanks for messaging the Community.

 

As the Apple Photos app is separate from Dropbox entirely, deleting images from there wouldn't affect any files in your Dropbox account.

 

If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
