uploading when battery low
my phone has very heavey battery and may work too long at 20% battery charge. why can i force uploading when dropbox do not wont to work at low battery charge?
The feature was implemented!
Check settings -> Camera Upload -> When to upload! :)
I would also greatly appreciate the ability to allow uploading with low battery. My phone allows swappable batteries and I sometimes use a large 10,000 mAh internal battery. 20% of that beast remaining is still enough to power the phone for hours of active use.
There are also many potential situations in which someone could have their phone taken or damaged, but may have taken photos or video that would be extremely important after the fact. I think of the Camera Upload feature as not only one of convenience but also of safety.
Dropbox should recognize that there are numerous power users who would value this feature. It maybe should not be a default, but it should absolutely be an option,
