It did not work for a while.  Now it does.  I guess it took a while.

This isn’t working on an iPad browser. 
why isn’t this info just standard? Why isn’t it on the app too?
it should be a standard, easy to access option! Dropbox is ALL about data storage!!

I’m frustrated to not find an easy answer to this. 
your whole company is based on storing data, yet I can’t find out how much data my individual folders are holding. I’ve spent the last hour going through my account on the app and on iOS browser. Please can you advise if I’m missing something or let me know if it’s something I’m not able to do please?

You can't in the app, but if you're in the browser and you rotate your device so you can see more columns, you can change a column to Size, then select a folder, tap the ellipsis and select Calculate Size.
