iPad transfer pdf from Android to ipadOS

[alex_at]

Hi,

I'm currently looking for a reliable solution that is non cloud based to transfer files from my Galaxy S10e to my iPad Pro 12.9.
Mainly for Scanbot PDF Scans, the camera on the S10e is far, far better in image quality than my 2015 iPP.

I tried bluetooth - but that doesn't work at all. I always get a failed to transfer notice.

Any ideas what to try?


Thanks,


Alex

If you'll be doing this a lot, one thought is an inexpensive card reader supporting both micro USB (Android side) and USB-C (iPad Pro) -

Amazon.com: usb type-c to micro usb - Memory Card Readers / Memory Card Accessories: Electronics

Online shopping from a great selection at Electronics Store.

www.amazon.com

Combined with a small SD card - 16GB - would be cheap.

Great if I upgrade to the 2020 iPP, but with my current 2015 there’s no usb-c unfortunately

iOS 13 with the Apple Camera Connection Kit (aka USB-A to Lightning) will work. Can also use the Belkin Lightning to Lightning "hub": power in one Lightning port, Camera Kit in the other (if wanting to use an HDD: need to power the HDD).

Didn't realize it was earlier model. Go as NoBoMac says and use the Camera Connection dongle and the USB-A connector on the card reader.
