If I delete photos from my camera folder on my phone will they stay in Dropfox Camera Uploads folder?
Hi,
I want to delete photos from my phone to get storage space back. If these have already been synced and in the camera uploads folder in my dropbox they would not get deleted by deleting them on...

Thanks for that! From what I can see, youâre on the free Basic plan which can explain why you donât see the option to update your payment details.
If you wish to have a paid subscription instead, youâll need to select one of our plans here and you should be able to insert your payment method before completing the upgrade process.

I am confused by the two replies from the two 'Super Users', they directly conflict with one another! Are photos deleted, or not?

I think a few posts have gone missing in between ours....
If you upload from a DROPBOX OFFICIAL application on a mobile to the cloud then delete from your phone they wont delete from cloud. If you use third party ones (including some which almost look identical to Dropbox ones - Samsung Connect for example) then you can find things are deleted.
If you upload via a computer using camera uploads (say) then it work as I said which is a mirror.
