You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Camera uploads has a stuck photo
For weeks now, Camera uploads has a message at the top: Camera uploads (1 left) Couldn't upload photo. Tap for more info. Tapping just gives me the generic help page, which is oriented toward comp...
Did you get anywhere in resolving this with Dropbox? I have the same issue, same symptoms, same attempted solutions, same outcome.
(Though on a Samsung S7 Edge.)

Dropbox StaffApparent success. The suggestion to delete the app's cache (via Dropbox settings, not the device settings), then log out of Dropbox and restart the phone, seems to have done the trick. At least, the message is gone. I'll keep an eye on it for a while to see if it comes back after I use the phone the way I normally do.
This issue has resurfaced, although the app has now been updated to give you some options on what to do with the problematic files. Tapping "More Info" now prompts you to Delete the file or Dont Upload! Hmm, not very useful!
However I discovered that if you take a screenshot of that page (or tap the Upload photo button on the bottom right), then this somehow kickstarts the upload process and the rest of the picture files magically start to upload again!
OMG. Skipped all the other "suggestions" about deleting cache, app, etc and just did a screenshot. That triggered restart of upload. Had 4 that wouldn't upload and the options offered were delete or don't upload - as noted above, NOT HELPFUL! They were all video files. Had to do a screenshot after each one (didn't matter what the screenshot was) and then one more would load. One file was problematic and kept failing no matter that it was being done over home wifi. So on chance that there is/was a wifi issue (I'm sitting at my desk with PC running fine on wifi) changed setting to "use data" for dropbox on phone and the last item just uploaded. Dropbox folks - What is going on ?? I've also noted that camera uploads often doesn't happen automatically as it should (used to) unless I open that folder on my phone...
Hi!
I am having the same issue.
It always tells me "Camera uploads (1 left). Couldn't upload photo. Tap for more info"
I do not know, which photo causes the issues. I would delete then.
The main issue is, that it aborts several times and it requires a restart of my phone to continue.
edit: Deleting cache did the trick.. Or at least I do not see any error message anymore :)
I had the same problem. This worked for me (at least for now):
Clear the Dropbox Cache (in dropbox settings) > Sign out of dropbox > Restart the phone > Sign in again.
