iPad : How do I select all my files in Dropbox and export them in iCloud ?
Hello Dropbox users !, my Question : I have an iPad. What is the exact step to enable exporting all the Dropbox files, pdf, etc, to iCloud or to any other cloud storage app ? Is there a way...
- Hi there, currently there isn’t a way to export all files at once, at least via the mobile app on an iOS device.
There might be a method using the iOS Files app, though we wouldn’t have any info on how to do this on our end.
On a desktop, you might be able to copy files from the Dropbox folder into iCloud via the method you normally send files there. Again though you’d have to refer to the documentation on how to do that.

- Useless info
- I am sorry if it seems sarcastic because it is not:
Are you legally ALLOWED to add useful interface features on iOS such as the one requested above? I think an option to place all folders at the top or at the bottom before/after respectively sorting would also be useful on iOS.
Similarly, are you legally ALLOWED to make the Android UI less cluttered and less redundant?
Like anything else with iOS vs. Android, it seems the patents Google and Apple have both “conquered” leave the customers feeling like they have bought a car which comes with 1,000 horsepower and only 500 of it is useable when because 90% of the time it is using the rest to send all driving information back to the dealership and manufacturer and parts manufacturers, OR the car only wants to drive on roads approved of by the manufacturer which limits the production of 3rd party replacement parts of the parts are not proprietary.
Again, I am sorry if it seems rude to ask, but I am thoroughly annoyed after years of nothing but disappointment with all mobile devices.It is indeed frustrating. I own only an iPad and a Dropbox account with a ton on there. I just want to copy the entirety of my Dropbox to icloud easily. Select all move. I think it can be done somehow in the files app on the iPad but not sure. It seems kind of obvious the two parties don't get along? Neither one will help me and their the experts. I've been periodically chasing this. Ideally I would like to exist in the apple ecosystem entirely. Not a fanboy. The walled garden sucks sometimes but I don't want to f around where it becomes more about the process than the actual goal. Trade offs will be made I know. The apple zoo just works for me.
That is such a non-answer. Can you say: “Glaring product deficiency?”
How about an update to allow that to happen?
Ask yourself, DROPBOX, why WOULDN’T the user want to be able to save multiple files at once? Why should they have to resort to a desktop or laptop, to do something this simple?
