Hi terri232, can you clarify the Dropbox version you're using on your mobile?
Have you tried clearing your Dropbox cache -you can do this in the app's settings-, and restarting your phone?
Also, just to make sure we're on the same page: do newly uploaded files show as HEIC when you preview them in the Dropbox app, or old ones too?

The version is 340.2.2 - I have cleared and cache and restarted. Only the new pictures appear as HEIC.

If you're on a free Dropbox account, but you don't have more than 3 devices already linked to it, can you also uninstall the app, restart the device and reinstall it, to see if that helps?
