Once you’ve copied the link your phone may give you sending options such as email, messages, social media etc – if not you can open the app you’d like to use to send the link through and paste it. You can also invite people to join your folder but in this case we’re going to select ‘Copy Link’. When the video has finished uploading click the three dots in the top right of the screen, a menu will appear – you want to select ‘Copy Link’ if you’d like to send the link of your folder to someone. You’ll notice a loading icon will show up on the video so you can see how fast the upload is progressing. This may take awhile depending on the size of your video and your internet speed. Now click ‘Upload’ and wait as the video file uploads. You’ll see the file name will have your video listed there and the upload location will be the folder you’ve just created. Once you’ve selected it click ‘Next’ on the top right of the screen. In your phone video/photo library select the video or videos you’d like to upload. Select ‘Upload Photos’ on the menu that appears within your new folder. Now it’s time to upload the video you’ve already recorded into the folder you’ve just made. Once you’ve selected the folder location hit the ‘Create’ button at the top right of the screen and your new folder will be created.
Now you need to click ‘Choose a Folder’ to pick where you’d like this folder to be saved on your Dropbox – you can save the folder in your main Dropbox desktop or as a sub-folder within another file. For this exercise we named our folder ‘Video Files’. Click on the plus ‘+’ symbol at the bottom of the screen – a pop up menu will appear – click ‘Create Folder’.īy default your new folder will be called New Folder – if you’d like to change it, click on ‘Folder Name’ – this will take you to a screen where you can name your folder. Once you’ve got your Dropbox account created and you’re logged in you want to create a folder that you can share with other people – this is the folder you’ll upload your video. Open the app and sign in, if you don’t have an account follow the prompts to create one. You can find the app by searching in the app store.
