Hi poppadoble, hope you’re doing well. 

 

In general, please keep in mind that Dropbox Backup Beta can back up files and folders backed up with iCloud, Google Drive, and One Drive. However, it’s recommended, but not required, for you to disable those before using Dropbox Backup.

 

If you’re on the legacy version of Dropbox Backup, you must disable your other backups before using Dropbox Backup.

 

So, basically, the iCloud settings on your device will show which apps sync and store data along with iCloud.

 

Hope this clarifies things.
