Camera Upload
I recently switched from Android to Iphone. I also recently turned on Camera Upload to my Dropbox. That's working just fine.
I'm just wondering about syncing. All photos all upload to DB. Periodically I go through pictures on my phone and delete the bad ones.
Is there any kind of sync feature? Or is it: once a picture is uploaded, its there forever, or until i perform a second purge of bad ones from DB. I'm afraid of the answer.
So if a suggested workaround exists, I'm definitely interested in that as well.

There's no sync. Camera Uploads is a one-way backup of the photos from your phone to Dropbox. Deleting a photo in either location will not delete it in the other.
