I've set my iOS camera uploads to add only new photos, but it's trying to re-upload everything.

I went from a iPhone 11 to a iPhone 16 Pro a few months ago. I backed up photos to Dropbox before I moved everything to the new phone. Had issues with the new phone and Apple had me do a full factory...

Hi jlo-nyc - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

Can you please clarify if you were using the Dropbox mobile app since you got your new iPhone or if you just started using it? 

Your camera uploads folder should be containing all photos and videos from all the mobile devices you've linked to your Dropbox account and enabled the automatic camera uploads feature on.

In the meantime, you can manually upload the files you'd like through the relevant (+) button too.

In any case, let us know more and we'll take it from there.
