Apple's iPadOS 19 at WWDC is rumored to be a more macOS-like update, with boosts to multitasking and productivity potentially making the tablet even more of a workhorse.
This is not true. It’s not a full file explorer as it doesn’t give you total access to the system but it can access the shared storage of any app, interface with external drives, and access files downloaded in Safari directly. Which other apps cannot do.
Other apps would download files to their own shared storage location, so they’re accessible too. Chrome asks you if you want to save to Files when you download, just tested.
I use Brave and it lets me choose a download location. Used it yesterday for some tax documents.
Granted, every web browser on iOS is Safari under the hood. I just prefer to use Brave because it syncs my settings and history and bookmarks to and from my PC and other devices.
