Same here, the setup is working great

I use Keepass2Android, which works great with Nextcloud and handles very well offline usage and subsequent merge of the database. On iOS the experience is much worse: I use KeePassium but it does not connect natively to Nextcloud, so I use BoxCryptor for that. The downside is that if Nextcloud is unreachable, I cannot see my saved passwords. Anyone managed to have a good experience on iOS?

I've had a very good experience with Strongbox. I personally haven't used the Nextcloud integration yet so I can't vouch for that specifically, but I've used it with multiple cloud services and it's been seamless every time. It also caches your database locally, which should solve the problems you were having with BoxCryptor. It is freemium, and the really useful features will cost $1 per month, but there is also an option to purchase a perpetual license. Quality indie apps are hard to come by iOS these days, and I'm glad to pay for a service that's so integral to my daily life.

Update: after writing this I checked again, and with the latest update to the Nextcloud iOS app it is possible to directly open and save the Keepass database from Nextcloud. No need for BoxCryptor anymore. Hurray for Nextcloud!
