Q: iCloud - how to show stored files on my iPad / iPhone?

Hi, I thought I would be able to use my iCloud drive as my dropbox. But when I store some files on my mac on iCloud, how can I display it on my iPad? Do I need some app for that?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Hi ondrafromczech,

On your iPad, you access the files from within the Apps that support it.

…
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 8, you can access your files from Apple apps like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, or any apps that support iCloud Drive.

Take care,
