Whatever is in the “on my iPad folder is accessible without WiFi. It is already on your device, hence the terminology, “on my iPad”. Sometimes that comes in handy.

Anything than you can “save to” using the share sheet option for the Files App can be saved to that folder.

Non WiFi redundancy to allow one to work when WiFi is not available. Thank you.
