iPhone uploads to dropbox suddenly stopped

I have been using Dropbox to store photos from my iPhone for years. Every so often, I upload them from my phone camera by opening the app, touching the photo icon and the uploads begin. It is set to use wifi, not mobile data, but that is no different. Until October 6th ago. As far as I know, I did not do anything. Why I try, it says 'All Done for Now' and no photos after that date are uploaded.

 

I am using iOS 14.0.1 on an iPhone 8

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Martin

    Hi mphcoach, thanks for messaging today!

     

    I'm sorry to hear about this matter. Could you try disabling and re-enabling the camera upload setting on the phone?

     

    Is background uploading enabled on the device? Could you attach a screenshot showing the camera upload settings on the app?

     

    Thanks!

      I have tried the first option - it makes no difference. Note, I repeat, I have changed nothing since before it was Ok to after it was OK

        Could you try uninstalling the app, rebooting the phone, and reinstall it to see if this helps?
