Easily transfer your photos and videos from Facebook.
Connect with friends, family, and communities of people who share your interests. Through the Facebook app, you can share photos, videos, and your favorite memories.
Managing, organizing, and sharing your photos and videos is now easier with the Facebook data transfer tool and Dropbox. With this integration, you can securely transfer your photo and video libraries from Facebook to Dropbox in just a few clicks.
Dropbox is the place where you keep everything organized. Now Facebook photos and videos can be part of your efforts to de-clutter, making retrieval and organization easier.
And with everything in Dropbox, you’ll have control over exactly who has access to your photos and videos. Your files will be private by default, and from there you can share them with anyone, no one, or just a few select people.
To import photos or videos from facebook.com or the Facebook mobile app:
- Log in to facebook.com or open the Facebook mobile app.
- Click the downward arrow in the top-right corner (web) or the Facebook logo at the bottom of the screen (mobile).
- Select Settings & Privacy.
- Click Settings.
- Click Your Facebook Information.
- Click Transfer a Copy of Your Photos or Videos. You may need to re-enter your password.
- Click the arrow next to Choose Destination and select Dropbox from the dropdown menu. Choose whether you want to export your photos or your videos and click Next. You can only export one media type at a time. If you’d like to transfer both photos and videos, complete the process for one and repeat the steps to import the other.
- Sign in to your Dropbox account and allow Facebook Data Transfer to access your Dropbox account.
- Click Confirm Transfer. All the photos or videos you’ve uploaded to Facebook will be transferred to Dropbox.
Monitor progress on the Transfer a Copy of Your Photos and Videos page of your Facebook settings, and Facebook will send you a notification when the transfer is complete.
Once the transfer is complete, the photos and videos you imported will be saved in a new folder in your Dropbox account.
