Could you build this?

No This is a native iOS file management app handling low-level archive formats, media conversions, cloud/network storage protocols (SMB, FTP, SFTP, WebDAV), and local system sandbox management.

What it would actually take: Building this requires advanced Swift/Objective-C development with C/C++ library bindings (e.g., libarchive, 7-zip, FFmpeg for media conversion) compiled for iOS architectures. It demands deep understanding of iOS sandbox storage APIs, document providers, background execution, and complex network file protocol implementations (SMBv2/v3, SFTP, WebDAV). This exceeds typical AI-assisted vibe coding, which cannot reliably synthesize the low-level native systems integration and memory-managed C-libraries required.
