Transfer MP4 to iPad or iPhone—no iTunes required! iTunes may be tedious and cumbersome, but you can copy MP4 to iPad without iTunes sync.

This article will demonstrate a shockingly quick way to transfer MP4 to iPad without iTunes sync required or any other service like AirDrop or Dropbox.

We all love Apple devices. They are compact and powerful. Their design is superb. In short, they are amazing tools for multimedia playback.

Here's the scenario: you have a movie you want to watch quickly while hitting the road. All you want is to quickly drop a movie on your iPad and get going. Well, this is not always as clear as it's supposed to be.

You should agree with me – media managing isn't Apple's strong point.

WALTR is the tool that makes it a child's play to transfer MP4 files to an iPad. This Mac/ Windows application lets you put practically any type of video and music (+eBooks) on iPhone & iPad without interacting with iTunes or programs.

If you have launched WALTR at least once, you know its design is second to none. You won't notice any unnecessary settings or buttons in WALTR.

Developers strived to make WALTR as simple as possible. For instance, to transfer MP4 to iPad, you merely need to push the desired file into WALTR. According to developers, such a simplistic approach is a must, because the simpler the application is, the more people love it.

You might've noticed from the video that WALTR also supports incompatible files like MKV or AVI movies by default. It converts on the fly once a video or music format is not compatible with your iPad or iPhone.

Now it's your turn to try it out. Hit the button below to get the installation file (it's free) and follow the guide on how to transfer MP4 files to iPad:

Step 1. Launch WALTR PRO

Once you installed WALTR (whether Mac or Windows – doesn't matter) go ahead and open it.

BTW, interesting fact – WALTR takes its name from Walter White from ‘Breaking Bad' TV episodes (the developers are huuuge fans).

Step 2. Connect your device to WALTR

One of the brand-new WALTR PRO features is that it can work via Wi-Fi. But to make it happen, you should first use a USB cable to make WALTR and your computer recognize your iPad. Once you plug your device into your computer, click on the gear in the bottom right corner of the application and check 'Enable WiFI connectivity'. You won't need a USB cable anymore.

From this moment on, WALTR PRO will recognize your device immediately if it's connected to the same wireless network.

Step 3. Drag and drop your movie into WALTR

As we said before, WALTR PRO will eat every file format you throw in it. You can drop as many videos as you can onto the iPad.

Step 4. Play your file

The cool thing about WALTR is that it grabs all the artwork and covers and even metadata, like genre or actor info. As a result, you get it all in your Home Videos folder.

What makes WALTR Special?

WALTR is a very well-thought-out product. While working on it, developers analyzed all the existing applications and their functions. In the end, they concluded that what users need the most is an easy and clear way to put content on Apple devices.

WALTR does just that and even more:

  • One of the exclusive features of WALTR is ringtone support. It's one of our users' favorite features since it's much easier and more troublesome than the usual way with iTunes Library.
  • If you own one of those oldie iPods at home, you have everything needed to fuel them with whatever kind of music you wish.
  • WALTR does on-the-fly converting & keeps fantastic speed for any type of audio and video files
  • There's also support for ePub & PDF files – drop 'em into WALTR and transfer files into the Apple Books

Conclusion

WALTR is like the black box of a magician—you drop stuff in it, and in a moment, you get it in the native apps on your iPhone or iPad. It's just extremely easy. Hopefully, now you know how to copy movies to your iPad properly.

WALTR doesn't have any settings simply because it doesn't need them. The whole app is as easy as ABC. There is no iTunes Library; you can easily transfer MP4 video files like TV shows, movies, or even music with no extra hassle.

So don't hesitate and try it right away!
