DropBox suggested I post this here instead of the questions sectoin. I have thousands of photos in DropBox. I turned on Camera Uploads years ago, and never turned it off. I love DropBox, and I love having all my photos safe. But when it comes time to find that photo of my son at the beach, or that video of a presentation I took at a conference... I get endlessly frustrated with scrolling through photos and video organized by date, especially on my iPhone. Its gotten really bad.
Right now I'm considering using http://photowranglr.com for DropBox - it gives you the same search features that iOS and Google Photos has. It uses machine learning and computer vision to extract lots of searchable, relevant metadata on every photos and video.
Does anyone else still keep photos in DropBox hoping they do a Carousel 2.0 or something? Or has everyone already migrated to iCloud or Google Photos (which I don't recommend because of Big Brother reasons)?

Having the same issue, > 18000 photos and videos on Dropbox, but having to scroll through them to find the one I need. I've been waiting for the iOS feature (to find objects, faces,...) to appear in Dropbox.
Thanks for the link to Photowranglr, but this seems to be still in the development phase.
Did you already gather more information?

- alphachannel8 years agoHelpful | Level 6It looks like photowranglr is now www.planetjuno.com - I've started playing with it. It lets you migrate everything from Dropbox online - I didn't have to download every photo and then reupload it.

Any plans to add this functionality to dropbox? I'm in a similar situation - love using Dropbox to back up photos, but now find it hard to organize them.
