    If you have WhatsApp set to automatically save received photos, and Dropbox set to use Camera Uploads, then it will happen automatically. I actually had to disable it because it was annoying seeing every stupid selfie and meme that I received saved to Dropbox.

    You can get a third party app that does that. Just look for apps that allow you to pick which folders to sync with Dropbox and give it a try :)

But that's the problem. I want to just point DropBox to my gallery folder for camera uploads. I use WhatsApp too much to disable image downloads. End up just not using Camera Upload at all from DropBox.
