You can now import raw files directly into Photoshop on iPad, without needing to go through the Lightroom app. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/camera-raw-file-support-ipad.html

 

Enjoy!

Hey guys. 
Just got the new iPad Pro 2021 with the M1 chip. 
Got raw files on my Sony Alpha A99ii and I'm trying to get them onto the iPad for editing. 
currently says unsupported files. Can anyone help with this. 
Thanks in advance👍😎

Sometimes stuff moves on the internet in old links. I have updated the link to this old post.

Ich habe mir ein Ipad gekauft (Ipad Pro 1Gen.) um auf diesen Photoshop zu nutzen.

Jetzt musste ich leider feststellen das ich keine RAW Bilder importieren kann.

Nach einiger Recherche erscheint es mir als bräuchte ich dazu 'Camera Raw', konnte jedoch nichts darüber in Erfahrung bringen wie ich an Camera Raw herankomme oder wie ich es benutze. Mehrere Forumen konnten mir bisher nicht helfen und ich hoffe ENDLICH auf eine Sinnvolle Antwort...

For the time being, you can use Lightroom to import your Raw images, and from Lightroom, you can send them to Photoshop for editing.

 

Additionally, it may be possible (you will need to try) to import a RAW file to your Camera Roll, and then import to Photoshop from there.

I've always been one to use photos I take or find online by directly importing them from my camera gallery, but after my new IPad update it seems that photoshop will no longer allow any photos I have to be imported directly to the document. I never had this problem with importing raw photos directly until now. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?

Did you make sure your device is allowing access to the photos? Go to settings on your ipad and Privacy and go to photos

Please add Adobe RAW extention/add on to PS APP for IPAD PRO users the Raw options are not the same as desktop RAW features
