    Hi Pbpb, I'd be happy to answer this one for you! 

     

    Once you backup and upload your content to Dropbox, you're safe to delete them off of your photos gallery on your phone. 

     

    The files will remain safe with us, and you can make up space for new pictures on your phone's storage. 

     

    I hope that clarifies, let me know if you have any other questions.
