I know this mightve been asked a gazzillion times but I was curious wether there is any news about importing brushes into the app version. I was working on a project and I'd like to use brushes directly into the ipad app rather than having to edit it in the desktop version

Oh, alright. I'll give it another try. Can you possibly link me (or tell me) how to define them as brushes on the ipad app because I hadn't found it yet (might've overlooked it though)

What kind of brushes are they?

Are they in an AI file?

What happens when you open that file on the iPad?

Yep, they are all AI files. It opens as a normal project. 

I've found a workaround where I imported them via my desktop app. It seemed to have transferred over via the cloud. I'm still curious wether there is a native way to do this, though.

You have to get the AI files to the iPad. iPads are like black boxes without a real system that you can have actual access to. But that is not Illustrator's fault.

Whether or not the brushes are already defined as brushes would depend on what the designer did in the file.
