Description
Steps to reproduce
- Name a folder starting with "%" (anywhere: desktop etc.)
- put a file in it
- try to access folder on iPhone
Expected behaviour
I should see the files when browsering my folders.
Actual behaviour
I can see that my folder contains a certain amount of kb, but when i open it I can see anything - the folder seems to be empty. Even when I added a file from my iphone, i can't see it. I see all files on windows client as well as in the cloud browser. This holds only for folders I used to name beginning with an %. Refreshing does not change it, renaming folders as well.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in the iOS app by creating a folder whose name starts with "%" and adding a file, then open it on an iPhone. Trace the folder listing entry point for that case; done means files in percent-prefixed folders are visible and remain accessible after refresh or adding a file.
