![]() Therefore, I started out using Strategy #1. But I didn’t want to bog down my only computing device–the iPad Pro–with this task. In my case, I had many folders to copy from OneDrive. Otherwise, Strategy #2 is better if you have an iPhone or iPad free. If you are only uploading files, you can skip the compression and uncompression steps. ![]() Strategy #1 is better if you do not need to upload folders. If you use this method and want to ensure reliability, don’t multitask or at least keep the Files app open in Split View. The device going to sleep might interrupt copying too, but I am unsure. Trying to multitask on the iPhone or iPad might interrupt the process. Occasionally I got an error, probably due to network issues. Relative to iCloud synchronization on PC or Mac, this method is speedier when it works. Or if you have an external USB drive that you can connect to (and is formatted for) your iPhone or iPad, you could copy files this way: PC -> external USB drive -> iPhone/iPad -> iCloud (via Files app). So if you’re trying to copy files from your PC to iCloud, the sequence would be PC -> OneDrive -> iPhone/iPad -> iCloud (via Files app). You can use the Files app to copy files to iCloud on an iPhone or iPad from another cloud account like OneDrive. Strategy #2: Copy the files to iCloud with your iPhone or iPad using the Files app tar.gz file, merely click on the file in the Files app. IPhones and iPads natively support tar/gzip. If you are not comfortable with command lines, you can install and use the free, open-source 7-Zip program. To compress using tar/gzip, you can use the command line on either Windows or Mac. Using tar/gzip instead avoids all of the above.
