Any new information?

Is it a bug, did I do something wrong, is this just not supposed and planned to work?

This is not a bug.

Given that the desktop app supports subfolders and it is not stated otherwise that the iOS app doesn't, I think it's reasonable to be confused over this. I was deliberating over buying the iOS app but couldn't see any example of subfolders supported in an iCloud folder.

I think the app description, at least on fsnot.es, should make this clearer (that on iOS, individual folders can be added but they won't show subfolders); would have saved me the time it took to finally get my answer on this closed Github issue.

Yes, indeed.
And it goes even further:

If the iOS App simply cannot see and do the things that I can do and see with the macOS App, I don't need both of them !
Why use an App on one OS that does not work (the same) on the other OS?

I already deleted all instances on all devices and use iA Writer and Textastic instead!
I am missing the encryption option, but as there is no solution, I cannot really do anything.
