Export files from IPAD to USB Device using Apple Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter 

Hi Everywhere I look I see Apple documentation saying that the "Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter" can copy pictures / videos from USB to IPAD (Photos app), but I want to export from the IPAD to a USB large files. Has anyone tried this with the Genuine Apple product and can confirm that it works please, before I buy one.

Thanks 

iPad (8th generation)

Hi y021ahe,


From what you've shared it sounds like you'd like to connect external storage devices to an iPad. If this is correct, yes, this is possible. The following user guide shares exactly how: Connect external storage devices to iPad - Apple Support


Take care.

Hi Drew, I do want to connect external drives to my iPad, and thank you for the link, but i want to copy files FROM my iPad to the external drive and the link offers a way to read from the External drive on the IPAD.. so is there a capability to effectively copy files FROM the IPAD TO the External Storage using this adapter ?
