What happens when I delete content off of my phone?

If I upload my phone photos to Dropbox and I delete them off my phone, will they still be available on Dropbox?

    Hey Nay21, thanks for posting here today! 

     

    The short answer is: yes. When using our mobile app, the files sync to your account online too, but the app doesn't create a local copy inside your mobile, that could be affected if you remove and delete your content.

     

    I hope this clarifies!
