Dropbox Can Now Automatically Sync Your Android Photos

Sync is a misleading term here. What the new Android Dropbox app added is an Automatic photo/video uploader, to a pre-defined folder on the server side. One way.

If you want true two-way sync for Android, try Dropsync (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ttxapps.dropsync). Another app called FolderSync also seems quite good.

I should add that Dropsync is also capable of Instant uploading, and not only photos/videos. Any new/modified files in your designated local folders in your phone/tablet.

+1 for Dropsync. definitely one of the most useful apps on my phone.

tdtran, one feature missing from Dropsync is the ability to exclude folders (like the cache folder in the camera DCIM directory). Please add this :)
