My kid uses and iPad for school and we are a full Android or Windows house. How TF do I get files to his device.. ITunes 🙄 Surely there is a workaround.. Haven't got an IOS/USB flash drive yet.
@jellycrystals May be I am missing something, but the most straightforward approach I can think of is logging into your kid's iCloud Drive from your Windows browser (via icloud.com) and uploading files.
@ravigupta His school is a Google school and it all backs up on there I think. I just wanted to throw a few movies on it for a train ride to cover no wifi times. I will have a look into it. Thanks for the suggestion 🤘
@ravigupta Yeah, not running a sever at the moment. Ended up just using Netflix d/l function. Will see what else I can do after the holiday. I am just so used to "drag and drop" life this has thrown me!
@jellycrystals wanted to share this earlier but could not remember the name - https://github.com/localsend/localsend
@ravigupta Ooh! This looks promising! Thank you 👌
@jellycrystals Documents by Readdle also helps you add files through a variety of mechanisms like smb shares.
And if it is just about videos, you can install a Plex server on one of the computers that is always on, and then everyone in the family can access it from any device.
