Reduced access permissions for cloud providers
The level of permission that your application requests for services like Dropbox is overly broad in nature. This makes it unusable for me as an integration.
If you could update your integration to Dropbox and request a single folder...
"App folder – Access to a single folder created specifically for your app."
... then I could move whatever photos I want into that folder.
Just as a heads up, by taking on such a permissive integration model, you're opening yourself up to a much bigger security risk.
unfortunately we’ve review this with dropbox and it is not possible to access the album and pictures at dropbox without requesting this permission.
This is because Dropbox does not offer a granularity of it’s permission that would allow something like “read only” or just for some albums.
This is unfortunate but it is the way dropbox API works right now.

I actually have the same problem on my android phone. Whenever I go to select a photo, the app gathers up all my saved musics album art, making finding the actual picture gallery a real pain!
