So I use the dropbox app itself with no issues, for uploading or downloading purposes. But I'm having issues when trying to view dropbox photos/folders in the gallery app. When I open gallery, i choose Dropbox from the top left "albums" selection. Each time I do, it initiates the whole "HTC Sense wants access to your Dropbox" with "cancel" and "allow" options. I always choose allow. I'm not sure why it prompts me to choose each time. But the bigger issue is that after I select "allow", I get the message that "the user has no albums to display." I can view dropbox photos through the Astro file manager app, but it's not as simple as using the gallery. Anyone else having the same issue with Dropbox and the stock gallery app? Thanks.

Just use the dropbax app on the phone to view them instead of gallery. Hope this helps. Bob

I never even knew you could link Dropbox to the gallery. I just did it and it worked fine for me.

Works fine for me although I mostly just use the app.

That works, but isn't as functional. In the app itself you only see filenames and have to open them to see what they are, as opposed to seeing image previews/screen caps within the gallery app. Not the biggest issue, but it's annoying that it's not working the way it's supposed to for me.

My dropbox app shows thumbnails in the folders. Along with dates and size. My gallery only asked the first time for permission. Didn't know I could do that link. Thank you. Bob

On my EVOLTE the Dropbox app shows small thumbnails. I just tried the gallery link on my HTC tablet and the link to Dropbox isn't there so it might be a device limitation.

How did you get Dropbox photos to show up Android Gallery? That would be super useful when using apps that won't work with Dropbox! :-)

I never did, and now I'm having the same issue on the HTC One. Consider this an unsolved mystery....
