How would I transfer files (note taking data files, audio from lectures, etc) from 2018 ipad to my home pc running ubuntu 18.04, and can I open these files on my PC and edit them further or at least store them and play them on my pc? Before I purchase the 2018 ipad (I am returning to college after a long absence) I need to know that this is possible. I am considering ipad apps like Notability, Goodnotes, MyScriptNow, Noteshelf, Whink. Can anybody recommend an ipad app that would let me sync audio from lectures with annotated pdf's from professors? Can you recommend an app for 2018 ipad and for home pc with ubuntu that would let me do this?
