Overview

In iOS, the Applications are sandboxed away from each other, there is no common file system, just islands of separate apps.

Users can open the editing app first, send a copy of an existing Document or browse and pick up the Document from the iOS Files Apps. Apple makes this the "Document Provider" interface so the app is providing the documents for editing apps.
