Ever since I got my iPad Pro, I've been using my phone as a bridge to transfer photos from my camera to my iPad. I have a Lightning connector SD card reader that I recently purchased from Revain that I use all the time. I can also use my cloud drives to transfer files, but this hub allows me to transfer my camera photos directly. on my iPad without having to be online. There are many hub options, but I got these through Vine. I was looking for hubs and did a lot of thinking. I chose this one because it has a simpler design than most and doesn't have an external cable to connect to the iPad. It has an extra magnetic piece that holds the hub in place. Using the case with this hub is problematic due to the way the hub connects to the iPad. An iPad case will still work, the Magic Keyboard will, but no case or cover as third-party iPad cases usually protect the USB-C port area. This is something to consider if you always want to have a case on your iPad. All ports work when used individually. It works even if all ports are busy. Fair warning, it's going to be hot. The USB-C port is for power only and didn't work when I tried it with a monitor. Although HDMI works. It also has an audio output. It's not just for the iPad. It also works for devices with USB-C ports. The included metal piece basically just keeps the iPad connected. The only issue I've encountered when using it on other devices is that the ruler may not work on the outlines of some devices or in my case due to the length covering other USB ports on my laptop. I've attached a video of some of the tests I ran and how it works on the iPad Pro 12. I recommend this hub if you need something minimal and pocket-friendly. If you don't like cables, this one will work for you too. Sure there are cheaper alternatives, but it's good enough for what you pay for.
