It's labeled as "library" 9,227 (8,877 photos, 350 videos). Should I see a folder on my phone that says "camera roll"?

Hey rwright, if you're using the camera uploads feature, you should indeed have a folder in your Dropbox named "Camera Uploads".
This folder should include all the photos, videos and screenshots from your phone.
As for the "library" folder you mentioned, is it possible you're using Dropbox backup to back that folder up?
You can see all your backed up computers/drives here.

That depends on the iOS version on your phone. Previously all photos and videos that you took were saved to the Camera Roll, but with iOS 18 Apple has changed that and the Camera Roll no longer exists. Instead, all photos and videos you take go to the Library.
