pCloud & Lightroom

Is anyone using pCloud to expand mobile storage?   I downloaded it today and tried to use it with Lightroom cc on my iPad.    It apparently takes a learning curve.    The Foot app does not work to import images from the camera.   I resorted to downloading from the card onto my mac and then moving them to pCloud.    That sort of defeats my purpose of being able to take the Q on the road with an iPad pro for a light weight 2 month travel experience.    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.   j

You might receive more responses if you post this on the Digital Post Processing forum (or maybe a kind moderator will move it there for you).

After a small research, I found this article: https://blog.pcloud.com/introducing-pcloud-for-lightroom/

Plus this little accessory to speed up the download to your iPad

I use the fotos app to view sdcard images inside the camera and the app easily allows images to be selected and to be downloaded to my iPad via the internal WiFi network.  I own but never use the card reader.   I edit the images using Polarr on the iPad and save to the iPad photos service.  I don’t carry a MacBook when I’m travelling and I haven’t used lightroom recently.   The workflow is ideal and I haven’t used my MacBook for three months.

i edit the image in the free version of Polarr available in the AppStore.

you can incorporate Pcloud into your workflow.

Here is an instant example from a photo shoot on Saturday .

This sort of thing will get simpler with IOS 13. Apps will be able to import directly from a card reader. For example LR will not have to go through Photos.

Great picture. I am on the road now with only an iPad and my Q.   It is working well using pCloud for storage, Lightroom CC and Photoshop Express for editing.   Starting to get the hang of it.
