Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the login flow on iOS 15.6.1 with app 4.4.2 and the reported Nextcloud server versions, then inspect the available client and server logs around the web-login error. Done means a valid server URL can establish the user account connection without that error.
