Camera Upload- Preserve Original Photo creation Dates?
Hello, I have a great deal of photos on my Iphone that I am contemplating to use DropBox. Archiving is very important to me with original creation dates. If I use the Camere Upload app, will the pho...
This has not changed and, with the upcoming changes to the way photos are handled, I don't see this changing anytime soon.
The modified date will always be the date that the file was uploaded. Your photos still retain the date that they were taken within the EXIF data of the file. That information, however, is not displayed on Dropbox.
Hi, I also have this issue. In Photos folder we must have to see the creation date of photos (better ir we can choose any metadata do show in list, like a real file manager).
I know this date is accessed by Carousel, so this information is still in photo file uploaded/transfered to Dropbox.
I need this because I like to organize photos by date and create subfolders to put them. It is impossible to do this directly in Dropbox because this lack of "file manager" facility, like we find in Google Drive, for example.
By the way, I am trying to move all my files (including photos) from Google Drive to Dropbox (1Tb account), but these file management features must be implemented..
Thank you in advance...
