I have a Generation 8 iPad. I am trying to download photos from my iPad to a flash drive and I’m having trouble. My connection is a lighting connection. I have an adapter with a lighting connection on one end and a USB on the other, but it doesn’t seem to recognize the flash drive.
Make sure that the flash drive is formatted correctly to be accessed by the iPad. See the information in this support document. Connect external storage devices to iPad - Apple Support

It is done on a computer. If you are going to use it on an iPad, it is best to format it with a Mac, but if you don't have access to one, you can use a Windows computer. Format it like you would one for a Windows computer, just make sure that you have set the format to the correct one related to the link I provided you.
How do you format the flash drive
