How can I select all photos at once on my iPad?

can anyone help me transferring photos from Dropbox into Photo Library on my iPad - it seems possible to transfer one at a time but with over 160 pics to transfer, time consuming - is there any way of selecting all at once?

thanks

    Thanks for posting here today, Bragg62!

     

    To select all of your photos on the Dropbox mobile app, you can go to the “Files” tab and click on the small checkbox that should be located at the top right side of your screen (right next to an upward arrow). After that, you should be seeing an option saying “Select all”. 

     

    If you do this via the Photos tab instead, there may not be a "Select all" button and you'll need to tap on each photo separately to select them and export them at once.

     

    Hope this helps! I'll be here for anything else, though.
