Simon, I’m sure there used to be an option like that, whether there still is, I 
don’t know as it’s not something I need to do.

Ok, that changes things slightly.

I thought there was an option within dropbox to have photos automatically lsync 
to the dropbox account / app on the phone.

Has this changed in recent years?

I have to admit I've not used  dropbox in some time

RE: Question About iCloud, Backups and Photos

2020-07-22 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Do you  pay for dropbox or just use the free version?

iCloud gives you 5 gig free and then as stated  it's about a dollar per month 
for 50 gig of space.

 From memory I thought dropbox gave you only 2gig free 

And iCloud is so seamless off the phone / apple dvice it's the better option.

Hello,
If you use OneDrive, you have an option in OneDrive to send your photos 
automatically in OneDrive. It's easiest to copy on computer

Re: Question About iCloud, Backups and Photos

2020-07-22 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi Shirley,

You can get 50 GB of space on iCloud for a dollar a month, so that may be the 
easiest option. Otherwise, you can turn off Photos in your iCloud settings. 
That will stop them being stored in iCloud. There's also an iCloud Storage 
setting that lets you see how much data different apps are using and lets you 
see your backups.

Best,
Anna
