Years ago some USB devices did work. But that was way back in the ipad 1 or 2 days. Plugging anything in often gets you a ‘device requires too much power’ warning.


The only way for you to know for sure is if you buy the device and try. I don’t have it, won’t have it, so all I can tell you is going by the past several years of using an apple iPad there is very limited support for peripherals - reading from a camera card for example.


Buy it, try it and find out for yourself Because I honeslty think that’s the only answer you will accept. (this is just a user to user forum, you are not speaking to Apple so we know what you know)
