Are you on your legacy ReadyNAS supporting only SMB 1.0/CIFS protocol, and hanging on the Apple Apps not support neither SMB 1.0 nor CIFS client? Well, this can't be enabled on this modern mobile phone Apps at all. That's why somebody mentioned using a third-party App, where the devs hav implemented some user space SMB 1.0/CIFS client, not sure by how far this is possible on iOS.

ES File Explorer also supports FTP, which will work with the legacy NAS.
