Using my IPhone, slect the image and just select the upper right three little circles which brings up a list of options. Then you select Export, then Save Image. This will save the image to your Photos. Not sure if there is a batch mode.

You need to download the files individually to the Camera Roll and then to the Photo Stream - there isnt an automated way I'm afraid.

Right, but can you download them using the iOS Dropbox app? If so, how? This seems like a pretty reasonable thing to want to do. Sometimes people want to edit photos or their phone or do other things with them that can't be done if they're silo'd in Dropbox.

I don't have this option on my iPhone.
My menu says:
Share
Save as Scan
Make Available Offline
Rename
Copy
Move
Delete
Cancel
If I open the photo, I only get a "speech bubble" and a "circle with an i" in the lower left corner, and no three dots anywhere.
