I'm sure this question has been asked many times but I find it surprisingly hard to find a clear answer on the internet by searching it.
Is it possible, yes or no, to transfer files to my iPad with a USB cable from an Android device?
I have a google pixel phone, I just got a 2018 iPad, and I would like to transfer big video files between the two using a USB-C to USB-C cable. My devices are not rooted or jailbroken.
I'm sure there are other solutions like using dropbox but they seem silly compared to a USB transfer.

This is currently not possible using a lightning/USB port.
Apple does provide an alternative though.
