Change download folder for Safari in ios13

I know I can change the location for this in Settings/Safari in ios13.

The only two locations available are iCloudDrive and On My iPad. Any of the folders on iCloudDrive or on my iPad are available to choose.

Two other ‘locations’, Dropbox and Documents by Readdle, are greyed out whilst a SMB share (a shared folder from my iMac) does not appear.

How can I change The Downloads folder location to any of these other locations?

I should ideally like to change the Download location to my SMB share folder. Is it possible?

Thankyou

Hi Old Chap 2,

It sounds like you want to change the download location for files from Safari, but you're not seeing the option to select specific folders, is that right? We'd like to see how we can help.

From our testing, we are unable to select anything other than iCloud Drive, and on my iPad. If this is a feature you'd like to see, please leave feedback here: Feedback - iPad

Thanks!
