Download all iCloud Drive files to iPhone

Particularly when traveling, I often don't have access to wifi or data.


I never know when I may need to see a particular photo, or spreadsheet, or document from my iCloud Drive.


How can I ensure all files are downloaded to my iPhone, without spending a lot of time checking all 3,324 of them individually?


Surely there's a way?
