  • Hey there Chauhan - Welcome to our Forum!

    Are you still having issues with this? If so, please provide any information you think might help us understand the problem you are dealing with so we can then in turn assist in any way we can. 

    If I understood correctly and you'd like to export the photos you have on Dropbox, please follow these steps for Android devices: 

    1. Open the Dropbox app and navigate to the file you want to export.

    2. Press on the arrow to the right of the file for Android devices.

    3. Select 'Export,' then choose the location where you'd like to save a copy of your file. If a location is not present in the list, it is not an available location for exporting Dropbox files.

    For iOS devices: 

    1. Open the Dropbox app and open the photo or video that you would like to export

    2. Tap the ellipsis (..) on the top-right and select “Export”

    3. Tap “Save Image”  to save this file locally to your device.

    Let me know if this helped in any way please. Thank you!
