I ended up using ESfileExplorer on IOS then linking my google drive to it and my NAS Cloud app syncs from the selected folders from google drive and uploads them to my NAS Photo Folder.
i couldn't get ESfileExplorer to connect to FTP or webdav or SMB. on and off the home network. but google drive worked on wifi and 4G.
ESfileExplorer isn't too aesthetically pleasing but it works. i might try out some other iso apps.. but from memory they are all fairly bad. i used to love using FX File Explorer for Android, it had many options and they all worked. and it was pleasing on the eyes.
will i ever need to register my NAS serial number again? if they bring out a new app? do you think ill need to have it registered at all on netgears webpage? its only really useful for free tech support from my understanding?

No. It's an end-of-life NAS, and as far as I can tell Netgear is quiet-quitting their NAS business.

Not something I've tried, so good to know that is an option.
