    Hey 1competa, sorry to see you're having trouble.

     

    Can you give us some more info as to why you're not able to upload your photos to Dropbox?

     

    Are you talking about manually uploading the photos or the automatic camera uploads?

     

    Are you perhaps getting some kind of error message?

     

    Let me know and we'll go from there.

        Thanks, 1competa.

         

        So, if I understand correctly, you're opening the Dropbox app, you're tapping on the + button to upload a photo, but nothing happens.

         

        Can you try to clear the app's cache with the steps in this article, to see if that helps?
