The auto-backup of pictures from my iPhone was such a killer feature it finally ...

Dropbox can auto-backup photos on iOS? That's news to me.

I know they released something like that for Android, but I'm not seeing it anywhere in the iPhone app. How do I enable that?

Set "Camera upload" to On in Settings in the app

Doesn't this require you to launch the DB app to upload new photos? I don't think third-party apps can be automatically invoked when you take a picture.

You can also set it to upload your photos when you plug-in your device. The dropbox client accesses the files on the device as if it was a camera.

Oh right. Too bad I never plug my phone into my computer.
