How to move files from Dropbox folder to iPad hard drive?

    I have an audio file and some JPEG image files in folders in Dropbox on my iPad.

    I can view the images and I can listen to the audio, but not at the same time.

    How do I transfer the files from Dropbox to my iPad’s desktop so that I can access them both at the same time. (I’m strictly PC, so clueless about the Apple eco system!)

    While I’m at it, is there an easier way than Dropbox to transfer files to an iPad?

    Thanks.

    D.

    You can save from Dropbox directly to your camera roll (photos and videos).

    There should be a share button, looks like a box with an arrow pointing up. Tap it and select ‘save to files’ and select to On my iPad. You can create folders here too. Or you can copy it from the Share menu and paste it in the Files app.

    Then open the Files app to access the files.
