Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Where has my import tab gone?

Always have imported photos using my lightning cable attachment, and now suddenly when I go to do this everything looks different in the photos app and no import tab is popping up! Where is it?? When I tap the imports option that opens up from the column on the left it only shows me my previous imports with no option to download any more. Somebody help me!

With introduction of iPadOS the import photos prompt doesn’t now occur. Instead, you should be able to simply import using the native Files App.
