Fuji RAW files and iPad

Just bought an iPad Pro and want to import files taken with my Fuji XT-3 into the iPad so I can edit them.I use a card reader which attaches to the USB C port on my iPad-this is the way I have always imported RAW files into my Mac book Pro. But when I attempt to import the files into the Photoshop application on the iPad the message pops up which says the files cannot be imported, that Fuji RAW files are an "unsupported file format".

So I called Apple and was told that my camera is supported by the iPad but that I would need a third party application in order to import the files. But they cannot tell me what application to use because it is not an Apple application. I know I cannot be the first person to encounter this situation and am hoping that some member of this forum can suggest which application to use. Once I solve this I would love to hear how members who do this transfer the images to their computers for final editing. I am hoping that all of this makes sense.

And thank you!

How about FujiFilm Cam Remote or LR? Not sure if your X-T3 is supported (yet), but both import raw files from my X-T2 just fine. I usually do my transfers wirelessly using the Fuji SW, but I also have an Apple-SD dongle to upload, which is faster.

I have an older Fuji bridge camera and I could upload raw files in the Photos app but they would display as blank. I could see the Nikon and Panasonic raw files. When I started importing directly to LR I could see everything.

Thx TriX. Are you using an iPad? My goal is to download Fuji Raw files directly to the iPad. I have been told by Apple that my XT-3 is supported but i need to find the application which will allow me to do this.

Thanks for your response-can I assume you are uploading Fuji raw files to LR on your iPad?

Yep, I am using an IPad Air (probably a gen 2 or 3) and use either LR or the Fuji ap, they import (and are viewable).
