help Apple USB-C to SD Card Reader FAQ

Does the Apple USB-C to SD Card Reader work with UHS-II cards?

Apple designed the reader for UHS-II SD cards while retaining backward compatibility with standard SD and UHS-I cards. Actual transfer speed is limited by the card, connected device, and files being copied.

Can this reader import photos directly to an iPad?

Yes, it can connect to USB-C iPad models and expose compatible card content to apps such as Photos and Files. It is not intended for older Lightning-equipped iPads, which require a different adapter.

Will it work with an M1 MacBook Air?

The M1 MacBook Air has Thunderbolt and USB 4 ports using the USB-C connector, so the reader plugs in directly. The card then appears in macOS for importing or ordinary file access.

Does the Apple reader accept microSD cards?

It has a full-size SD slot rather than a separate microSD slot. A microSD card can normally be used through the full-size SD adapter supplied with many microSD cards.
