Download Etsy Files On The iPad From Powerhouse Planner Etsy Store
If you purchase from the Powerhouse Planners Etsy page you will see that I only upload a one-page PDF file. This file is small and is also not a zip file. In this PDF you will find a link to the cloud where my customers can download their products.
Even though now the new iOS unzip files automatically I still like to provide this one-page pdf because I don’t want my customers like you to have to download massive files to your devices. I know not everyone has plenty of available space on their devices.
From the cloud, you can easily access your purchases from any of your devices and re-download if needed.
And this is the hack for downloading Etsy files on your tablet or iPad. If you need more beginner guides to Digital Planning check out the posts below.
