Description

On the NextCloud app for iOS, it would be very useful to be able to AirPlay photos to a screen within the App.

Both Apple Photos and Google Photos handle this correctly. It is one of the biggest things holding me back from being able to switch to NextCloud, as I regularly need to display photos on a Television fullscreen. The Mirror Display function built into iOS is not suitable.

I hope you will consider adding this functionality to the iOS app, as it would enable more use cases for NextCloud.
