How can I transfer a GEDCOM file between my Mac or PC and my iOS device?

Note: On macOS 10.15 Catalina, iTunes is no longer required for file transfer, you can access your iOS device directly via the Finder.

To copy a GEDCOM file to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch use Apple iTunes, which can be downloaded for free from www.apple.com.  

Open iTunes

Connect your iOS device to your computer and open iTunes and select your iDevice on the left side of the navigation menu.

Import or export the file
