Hi there,

I switched to storing my camera photos to Dropbox over the weekend. My SD card was sending me "I'm full!" messages. I moved them on my PC from where they were on my camera to Dropbox.

Now the problem is I can't see them in the default Gallery, I have to go to Dropbox which is a very inconvenient way to do things. Dropbox took their Carousel away a few years ago as I recall. :(

Is there a way to view them in the default Gallery if I keep them on Dropbox?

Thanks,
Deb
 
Depends on the phone you have. Some manufacturers included options to access cloud services through the Gallery, but if yours doesn't, then there's no way to add Dropbox access to your Gallery unless you sync the pictures to your device (AKA downloading a copy of the pictures to your device).

Sorry about that it's an LG V30 and it shows my Dropbox account under Accounts in the Gallery.
 
I think I just found it. Ugh, 3 days worth of looking and making adjustments whenever I had time. Thank you!
