How do you get a app from your USB to your iPad?

To transfer an app from a USB drive to your ipad, you cannot directly install the app from the USB due to Apple's restrictions. Instead, you should use a computer with iTunes or Finder (for macOS Catalina and later) to transfer the app. First, download the app to your computer, then connect your ipad, select it in iTunes/Finder, and sync the app to your device. Alternatively, you can download the app directly from the App Store on your ipad.
