97 TopicsMy camera uploads stopped uploading new files on my iPhone.
Until May 18, all the photos I take with my iPhone (iOS 18.1.1) were automatically sync'd into my Dropbox Camera Uploads folder. Since then, the new images are not going into the folder. My phone is fully charged, on strong wifi, and I haven't changed any settings. How do I get it to continue uploading photos to the Camera Uploads Dropbox folder?126Views0likes7CommentsBww files from a website now saving as a URL file on the iOS app

Any suggestions ? thanks76Views0likes8CommentsAfter the latest iOS mobile app update, my offline files have been re-syncing.
I upgraded to version 428.2 yesterday and now my Dropbox app always shows my offline files as queued for resync when I launch the app. I just tested it by syncing my files, then closing and relaunching the app and every entry in my offline list has that little blue circle with the white arrows. The files are still available so I guess it's not really re-downloading them? I'm hoping this is just a UI glitch.154Views0likes12CommentsCan we have a "scan document" option when long pressing the Dropbox icon on iOS?
Hello, Wouldn't be a great idea for Dropbox to include the "Scan document" option in the menu showing up when pressing the app icon (iOS) like for Apple's Notes app ? I can send you a screen capture. Just my 2 cents. Regards. Robert Lespérance25Views0likes1CommentWhy is the camera upload feature on iOS slow in backing up the photos to my account?
Hi!!! I have just installed the app and opened an account (yesterday) to create storage for my phone photos so I can make room on my phone. I have automatic uploads switched on and there are over 13,000 photos and videos on my phone. I am curious how long it should take for the process to complete transfer from phone to app? The “backing up” action happened non stop for two hours yesterday morning and when I opened the app again this morning, it is showing as still underway - “backing up…….. 10894” - the number goes up and down. I’m trying to figure out how it works and when it will be safe for me to remove the photos from my phone so I can make space to update iOS etc. I have done some random “audits” and found a number of photos from, for example, July 2023, which haven’t transferred over to the app. Appreciate any advice, thanks!!Solved48Views0likes4Comments"There was an issue communicating with your photo library" when uploading photos on iOS
Hi, I have always been able to upload my photos from my iPhone to the Dropbox app. Over the past several months it has been working. I am getting an error message - There was an issue communication with your photo library. I have already deleted the app and reinstalled it twice. I have restarted my phone and turned my wifi on and off. Any other things I should try? Thank you!39Views0likes2CommentsCan we upload live photos through Camera Uploads?
I can see lots of posts asking for support for Live Photos. I feel quite cheated that I have lost the ability to see these photos. As someone else has also posted, I have little snippets of my mother’s voice and movement that I have lost forever and she has passed away. Dropbox offer a photo sync service which means they need to solve for Live Photos, they have been around since 2015 so it’s not a new function. Please prioritise a solution to upload and then restore Live Photos.Solved921Views2likes6CommentsDropbox iOS problem: Unable to share more than 3 files at once.
After my Dropbox app was automatically updated recently (version 414.3), I can no longer send more than four files at once through another app. When I select four or fewer files, it works fine, but selecting more than four prevents me from tapping the send button. My friends who also use iPhones are experiencing the same issue, but Android devices don’t seem to have this problem. (I'm using an iPhone 16 Pro.) My recording link: removed222Views0likes15Comments
