My phone does this too! It’s really confusing. I can take a picture and it’ll do the animation and stuff, but it just doesn’t appear in my camera roll! Even when I save something from the internet or screenshot something, it doesn’t appear in my camera roll. I wonder why it does this

This doesn't require replacing anything, because you said it takes videos. Have you done a hard reset? Hold power button and home button until phone restarts
