It’s pretty much the main way to get any movies from a Windows personal drive on an iPad, etc., unless you’re using something like Plex.

Edit: added Windows clarification

Not any longer, drop a file into iCloud, go to VLC, enjoy movie. The files app upgrade is pretty neat.

I do in fact use Plex. The last time I downloaded a video, I used VLC. There are plenty of ways to get movies into VLC - any cloud storage provider and its own website. The VLC app on iOS exposes a website you can use to upload movies.

Also; Now you can copy media directly from a USB attached hard drive or a network share using the Files App.
