I’d like to ask whether it’s possible to access Files that are mark as “offline available” in the NC iOS App through the iPad Files App when I am actually offline.

When without internet connection, I can read offline files perfectly fine within the Next Cloud App but in the iOS Files App at first nothing appears and after waiting a while it shows the top level Folders (cached I think) but I can’t actually open them (Error window that I am offline). I made one top level folder available offline and altough I can access it through the NC App, the Files App seems to treat it like all the other folders that are rightfully treated as offline. When online I can access all folders perfectly fine.

Is there a Workaround or a way to fix this in an update of the app?  
Thanks for your Help
