changing the location of Camera upload folder
While uploading the pictures to Dropbox by default is uploading to Camera upload folder. How can I change the default location as I have 2 Iphone and would like to synchronize the pictures to Dropbo...

All devices linked to your account will upload to the Camera Uploads folder. This cannot be changed, and there is no way to differentiate between the photos/videos uploaded from multiple devices.

Could we get the option to move the camera upload folder elsewhere instead of simply having it at the root Dropbox folder?
I'm really just interested in moving the folder for organizational purposes, but others have listed a series of other features that could also go with this (different folders for uploads from different phones, etc). It seems like there are a whole bunch of possibilities that could go with this suggestion.

A feature like this would go a long way towards making Dropbox more useful. The current [lack of] capability is like being trapped in 2004.

Me, too! I have multiple devices and would love for each to upload to a specific folder for each.

Yes, please add this feature. I also want to reorganise my dropbox and am very surprised that I cannot change the Camera Upload folder location.
