Plug it in, and use Finder on Mac, or use Files on an iPad.
Depending on your requirements and your hardware, a USB-C to USB-A adapter (dongle) can be required when using a USB-A Flash drive. There are also USB-C docks available, with more connectors.
AirDrop and iCloud storage also works well for transfers.
And a Mac can run network file sharing in the local network.
Thanks the challenge is that there is no port the right size. For the flash drive. Did not see any useful adapters
MrHoffman addressed the port issue:

That’s the USB-C to USB-A dongle mentioned, then.

Or a dock or hub:

{etc}
or switch to a flash drive with a USB-C connector.
{various options}
If you have decent network bandwidth, iCloud Drive works well for shuffling files around, too. As can Airdrop.

Thanks. It is not a usb flash drive. It is thin. Almost square shape. Has 5 or 6 flat gold color things. Daughter has Android phone and laptop. Says she has a port for it. Just can not find for Mac.
That what I need. Thank you.
One of these? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SD_card
If so, you need a SD card reader with a USB-C connection.
