Research direction

Locate the l10n strings that refer to the Nextcloud Files app and compare their wording with the app names used in the Play Store and App Store. Confirm that the user-facing strings use the intended name while the existing documentation links remain unchanged.

Basically this library refers to the "Nextcloud Files" app, but in both playstore and the applestore it is just called "Nextcloud" (for developers maybe "Nextcloud client").

The only thing called Nextcloud files is the desktop application, and the files app itself inside Nextcloud.

Since its used in the l10n strings it might confuse end-users, maybe developers as well but the links are correct in the docs at least.
