allow individual HEIF files to be uploaded to dropbox and converted to JPG
Currently you allow HEIF file (Iphone photo) upload and conversion to JPG via "camera uploads" only. This means one has to upload all photos to dropbox to easily convert them to JPG - but what if I just want a few select images? We suggest an option were even individual (singel) HEIF images can be uploaded to dropbox and converted to JPG. Clearly you have the technology in place, its just about creating the menu entry.
For instance an option in settings: "save single photos uploaded to dropbox as JPG", so that the image is automatically converted to JPG and uploaded to dropbox when i click "save to dropbox" on an apple device.

Hi Castell, thanks for contacting us!
If you're interested in converting individual files, you can already do this from the Dropbox site for already uploaded files by using this feature.
Would this help answer your requirements?
Hi,
Thanks for the quick help. This solves my issue for know, but I would never have thought of logging in on the dropbox website, to check if there are other options available than in the Iphone app. Would be great to have this "save as" feature directly in the Iphone app as well, so one can skip the extra step of logging in on the website.- Jay
Glad to hear that this feature helps out!
We appreciate the additional feedback on how to further improve the Dropbox mobile app.
