Why need to download Dropbox photos to iPhone?

Recently, more and more people use online cloud storage like Dropbox to store files, particularly photos. It offers 2GB free cloud storage for registered users. So you can easily save photos on Dropbox to keep a backup and free up iPhone memory.

And you can also download or download Dropbox files to your iPhone. Generally, Dropbox offers two ways to download photos to iPhone. First one is using the Dropbox desktop/mobile app and another one is through its official website. However, Dropbox’s mobile app doesn’t support exporting multiple photos at once, you have to download them one by one.

  • To download multiple or all photos from Dropbox to iPhone, you should download photos from Dropbox desktop app or website to computer first.
