I backed up Photos in iPhone 11 using the Synology Photo app using one way option. I did not use the default destination Folder originally. I think, but not sure.
After originally backupI did however, change that option to the default destination.
When I open Synology Drive or Synology Photo on my Mac I see a Mobil Backup/iPhone/folders by year/folders numbered 1-12.
Question
#1. Does the app create a folder in NAS? If so what is it named? Is it called Mobile Backup?
#2. Why are the subfolders named numerically 1-12?
#3. How can this be prevented or changed?

Thank You in advance

Where did this "Photo" (highlighted) folder come from? Under Home there is a Photos/mobile backup/iPhone folder where my Photos go from my iPhone.
