On the piece about iPads & files. Any joy with iCloud Drive & using content caching on the Mac?

I do find iCloud Drive on the Mac to be pretty stable. Sometimes force-download a file takes a minute to respond but otherwise it works well. If they improve the iOS app I may move away from Dropbox altogether.

Same here on the Mac. I was thinking more of using MacOS’ iCloud content caching to accelerate iCloud photo/video library performance on our iPad Pro. I currently have an older iMac which doesn’t support it so no idea how well that feature works.
