Ipad question

I have 2 actually. Can you print from an Ipad (Brother printer) and can you easily transfer photos from a Tracfone Samsung to an Ipad?

I don't know anything about Androids, but you can print from your iPad using AirPrint. So you have to have a wireless printer.

Please go YouTube and look for a video about the transfer of photos.

Second do Google Ai search. This search will explain everything. You just have to ask the right questions.

I print all the time from my iPad. After you've clicked to print, you just select the printer.

It might be easier for you to store photos in a cloud platform and then access them on your iPad. I add photos and documents to my Google Drive, and then I select the Google Drive app on my iPad.

Do you have a wireless printer? If so, download the brother iprint&scan app, and you can then print from your iPad. I'll attach a pic of the app.

To transfer photos, I do it one of these two ways depending on my purpose. Compose an email to yourself using your mail program on your Tracfone, attach a few photos, send it, then open the email on your ipad and save your photos OR...

Assuming you have a google account and are backing up your tracfone photos to google--on your ipad, you can open the google photos web page in safari (photos.google.com), sign in to google, and all your tracfone photos will already be there assuming you're backing them up to google to start with. You can then long press on a photo and save it to your ipad photos if you wish to do so.

I use an iPad and use the Brother printing app. It works beautifully. The only way I can think of to transfer photos from a TracFone to an iPad is to email them to yourself. They work on different operating systems.

I am not sure there is a way of getting your photos to your ipad from your android phone without just emailing them to yourself or posting them to a cloud to download. There may be special programs out there that do it, but I'm not aware of any particular ones.
