Google Classroom works best with common file types. Broadly, these are:

• Office files (Google and Microsoft)
• PDFs
• popular media (images / audio / video)

IPAD USAGE

Unfortunately, Google Classroom for iPad isn't designed for using unsupported files.

Therefore, we recommend using Google Drive to share DocsPlus files with iPad users:

It's often best to create a folder and share it with other users. Files can then be freely saved into it and become available to other users automatically.
