      "Can you do that easily on your iOS?
      Don't change the topic."

      You need special lightning connector for OTG not the standard one that works with any phone.
      100$ for that sh*t when you can buy cheap 5-10$ for Android.
      Even 1$ OTG cables work perfectly with Android.

        As for transferring files, there are lightning to USB adapters where you can plug in any USB flash drive. Heck, there are flash drives with lightning built in. The latest iPad Pros have builtin USB-C port.

        Just admit it that you're wrong and are outdated on your knowledge. Oh, that's right, you might not have internet. So I can understand your lack of up to date knowledge of tech since you're only in the forest shooting 4k for nothing.

          But I am asking how do you transfer files when there is no WiFi around?
          Like I could be in the forest for camping and take all the 4k videos I want, transfer it to a PD or external HDD all the while freeing up space on my phone for recording more content.

          Can you do that easily on your iOS?

              What would you do when you there is no WiFi router to play as a medium?
              Ability to transfer files locally through PD or HDD is much superior to some WiFi connection that might or might not exist.

                iOS Sucks, 09 Jul 2020And your local WiFi connection works on Internet right? Dumb or dumber?
                I can transfer files wirelessly from any browser to my iPhone without internet connection. Apps like VLC creates a local server on the iPhone, and accessible from any computer in the same network.

                  Plenty of ppl do just fine without Google services. So they aren't reliant on cloud as you think.
                  It's clear you have never used an Android phone.

                              Stop it with the "customization" battle. People are customizing their phones to what? Look like some high school project using themes and icons? Face it, even people who use Android don't maximize the true capability of their phones. Samsung Dex for example. What a failure. At least iOS gives us good experience and a GUI that looks finished.

                                      If some of the most popular apps are crashing way more often compared to that on Android, then this tells you that the iOS ecosystem is simply not good enough compared to Android for app developers as well as the end users.

                                        So glad to be part of the premium Ecosystem of Android where you don't have to make any compromises in user experience and don't have to suffer app crashes for basic everyday apps.
