  • The new iOS seems to have broken it, submit bug reports about it.
This adapter worked well for quite a while. I found it worked a lot better for flash drives and SD card adapters since it is powered using the lightning port. It didn't charge my phone too well but the usb device connection was very stable compared to the non-powered lightning to USB OTG adapters. However, with the recent iOS updates it no longer works. It will say “this device requires too much power” as if the lightning port is disabled. However, if you can find an iPhone with an older iOS (e.g. 16.1, the current is 16.5 at the time of writing) you will probably find it surprisingly DOES work. I noticed this started since updating to 16.4 or 16.4(a). I’m going to submit a bug report about it. You all should too, because I don’t think the adapters are necessarily to blame. Perhaps there is a revision coming to them as well that would warrant RMAs. There may some device security patch against them and thats why they no longer work and we can get them replaced. Edit 6/25/23 — Apple has released iOS 16.5.1 and highlighted that these adapters have been FIXED. Update to 16.5.1 and try using them again. Hope this helps! ... show more

  • Works well... Until It Doesn't
I use this adapter for playing an iPhone through a studio monitor, via a Focusrite Scarlett. It worked fine for about five months of nearly daily use. Then, the other day, it just stopped working. It no longer supplied power to my iPhone. I tried it with two or three different wall chargers and lightning cables, and I tried using my iPad instead of iPhone. It's definitely this USB Camera Adapter that's the problem. I'm posting this review only so that people get a sense of the lifespan of this product - or at least of one person's experience. I don't know that there's any other product that one could purchase instead of this. So, if you need it, this is probably what you have to buy. Correction: There are cheaper alternatives. I don't know how good they are, but I just wanted to correct my comment about there possibly not being any other product that one could purchase. Correction #2: There is probably nothing wrong with the adapter after all. Based on posts I've read online, it appears that the new (as of this writing - 6/6/23) release of IOS (16.5) causes the adapter not to work. I've upgraded from 3 to 4 stars. Correction #3: IOS 16.5.1 resolved the issue. The adapter works great. 5 stars. ... show more

  • Works Great, As Expected
I wanted to backup/transfer 18,000+ photos and videos from my iPhone to a Samsung T7 Shield SSD and bought this adapter and a powered USB hub to get the job done. This adapter worked perfectly as I transferred data in groups of 800-900 photos at a time and now have lots of free space on the phone. I did not time the transfers so, I cannot speak to what kind of throughput you can expect (and that might have only been helpful if you used all the same equipment I did.) Nevertheless, I now know this will work and can repeat this process when we travel. We have an overseas trip planned for later this year and I intend to download photos/videos from my phone each night to make room on my phone for the next day. Overall, I am very pleased with this iPhone Camera Adapter. Hopefully, this review was helpful to you. ... show more

  • It works again with iOS 16.5.1
Updated review June 22, 2023: I changed my review from 1 star to 5 stars because Apple fixed the connection problem with iOS 16.5.1. Adapter works great and is a huge time saver when downloading photos/videos from my underwater camera to my iPhone 14 Pro Max. Original review: I was using this adapter for over a year without any issue until i updated my phone to iOS 16.5. After connecting the adapter to my 14 ProMax, the camera kept cycling on and off. Yes, i had auxiliary power connected to the adapter. I tested a few other iPhones (11Pro, Xr, 12ProMax and 13ProMax). All of the phones worked with the adapter with iOS 16.4.1(a) but not with iOS 16.5. I hope Apple fixes this soon. ... show more

  • Works for microphones!!
I bought this to hook up my mic straight to the iphone and it works perfectly. You can find videos on YouTube in how to do this.

  • This one works
I am using this to connect USB output from a mixer to an iPhone 7. The MoviePro app immediately recognized the device because it is MFi certified and is made by Apple. Yes, it is a little more in cost compared to the no-name versions you can buy, but this one actually works. 5 Stars.
