jimcamel Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 The App can easily access photos already on the iPad, and I was able to Share from Lightroom on the device. But from the Desktop it mainly gets files via iCloud or DropBox which requires a fast Internet connection. It would be very helpful if the developers enabled iTunes file sharing so that we could drag and drop using a wired Lighning cable, or if enabled, local WiFi. Similar for "Save A Copy..." for output. There is a need to speed up the input and output without using Internet bandwidth. I have a 25mbps download and 1mbps upload - so using iCloud or DropBox to send a file to the device is pretty painful. What I want is to be able to plug the iPad in via my Lightning cable and use iTunes Apps File Sharing to transfer files (or easily a folder of files) right into Affinity; and similarly to get them back out. I really feel that being able to take some files 'on the go' and edit them with the iPad PRO+Pencil is a great workflow - but I have to be able to efficiently get the files on and off the iPad. jc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conrad2k Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I use FileBrowser for Business (Apple App Store) to access images on a NAS server. Currently it works best to find the image using FileBrowser and then use the "Open in..." mechanism to bring it up in APi. It works from APi's "Import from Cloud" option, but currently doesn't show thumbnails of the image when used this way. Stratospherix (FileBrowser's developer) is working on this, but some encouragement from Serif and users would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
