Description
For file lists, i think the share and more button are unnecessary. Perhaps such highlights that one can perform actions on each folder or file yet that i think is already known to users. For example in many places in iOS one can long hold to get a menu. Such is also true for the default iOS Files app. Having all available actions under such a menu would leave more space for the file name text field, very helpful for smaller devices and long file names. Consider how iOS does not use some additional icon everywhere some action is available.
Screenshot included of iOS Files. As there is already a long hold contextual menu in Nextcloud iOS, i suggest moving all options there.

Research direction
Review the existing iOS file-list controls and the long-hold contextual menu, using the issue's screenshot and comparison with the iOS Files app as context. Determine how all current file and folder actions can be represented in that menu while removing the share and more buttons; done means the file list has more room for names without losing access to those actions.
