Lightning to USB Camera Adapter Lightning Female OTG Cable Adapter for Select iPhone iPad Models Support Connect Camera

I bought this cable because my MacBook Pro is outdated and I can no longer email anything to get it onto another device! I have a newer iPad that I’ve been using, but I wanted a file from my old MacBook Pro and I used this Lightening to USB Camera Adapter to transfer the file over to my iPad and it worked! FYI I have an iPad 9th generation running OS 26.2. It is easy to use, compatible, portable, and has good connectivity that doesn’t drop off. I left the adapter plugged into my iPad for about an hour, and it never stopped working (the files were always visible when I tried to access them). When I was saving files, the process was quick with no problems. The price is excellent! For interested customers, I experimented and was able to import a pdf file, jpegs (photos), and a Pages document from a USB flash drive (the files were from my old MacBook Pro). I opened the Files App on the iPad and clicked on a rectangular icon next to “Recents” at the top of the screen. The name of my flash drive came up on the left side of the screen under “Locations” and then I opened the flash drive, selected the file I wanted to transfer to my iPad, and saved it to the Files App. I unplugged the Lightening to USB adapter and the files were all there! The trouble I had was figuring out HOW to do this on an iPad, so I looked it up online and found step by step directions. All the files could be opened and viewed on my iPad, and the Pages document looked the same (space between paragraphs, length, etc.) I was also able to reverse the process and copy a file from my iPad to the USB flash drive. This also worked perfectly. This Lightening to USB camera adapter is PERFECT for file saving to and from an iPad with a USB flash drive (and mine is an older, unknown brand). Highly recommend if you are using a flash drive! Read more

I ordered this Lightning to USB adapter to connect my Fifine AM8 microphone to my iPhone XR, and it worked exactly as advertised. The adapter is compatible with my old device and was super easy and hassle-free to set up. I also like that it’s a quality adapter, well-made with a durable-looking cable. Read more

While it works for many USB flash drives, some larger and SSD based USB mass storage drives could not get enough power to turn on. Best luck I has was with Microcenter 32/64/128/256 USB drives formatted in APFS. Will NOT work with mechanical drives, period. And remember that Lightning is limited to USB 2.0 so wait for the flash drive to stop blinking or the files to show proper data size before you unplug the drive. Read more

Easy to use, good quality, picture quality and speed. I needed to use the usb port to connect to an adapter for a gaming headset the LogitechG733 to be able to connect to her iPhone. It worked. So I’m happy with it. Read more

False advertising. This adapter does not support USB 3.0: iPadOS reports this adapter as an A1440 (Apple’s Lightning to USB 2.0 adapter) with no serial number. The product images and the box say this adapter is USB 3.0, but unfortunately that is false advertising. I tested throughput as well with a gigabit Ethernet adapter, which maxed out at just under 400 Mbps. USB 2.0 supports 480Mbps, so this makes sense for a 2.0 adapter. The Apple A1619 adapter by comparison delivers over 900Mpbs with all other variables the same, maxing out Gigabit Ethernet. To add to the false advertising, this adapter sports a USB 3.0 port including the requisite pins and even blue colored plastic, but the internals both report and function as USB 2.0. Coil whine: When this adapter is plugged into an iPad or iPhone it emits a quiet high pitched whine. The sound increases in volume when the adapter is placed under load. Charging reliability: On multiple occasions, my iPad refused to charge when using this adapter. Either no charge ding at all, or a brief charge and then disconnect. A wireless mouse receiver connected to this adapter did continue to work during these charge issues. Output power: Both this adapter and the Apple A1619 deliver ~0.15A at ~4.80V when unpowered; this adapter provides the same output power and the A1619 provides closer to 0.5A when both adapters are powered. While this is enough to run many low power USB 2.0 devices like wireless receivers and flash drives when unpowered, it’s not enough current for USB 3.0. The USB 3.0 Ethernet adapter and flash drive used for testing both functioned out of this adapter with no Lightning power connector attached. But when connected to Apple’s true USB 3.0 adapter, they attempted to pull more current than available reporting “this accessory requires too much power” causing power to cycle to the device. This is resolved when external power is connected to the adapter’s Lightning port. A connected Seagate 2.5” USB 3.0 external HDD pulses the spindle motor on and off when this adapter is both powered and unpowered. The Apple A1619 adapter doesn’t send any power (according to my inline meter) to the HDD when unpowered, but once a lightning cable is attached provides 0.37A at 4.83V, enough to spin up the drive and access data in the Files app, though freezing and performance issues while copying data leads me to believe this is not quite enough power for my particular drive to perform reliably without a powered USB hub. Conclusion: If you’re looking for a USB 2.0 adapter that includes pass-through charging, Apple doesn’t offer one, so this adapter is interesting. I would rate this 3 stars based on features and price, considering 5 stars if the electrical noise and charging issues were resolved. I can’t recommend it at all however due to outright lies about the USB protocol version support both on this listing’s pictures and on the product box I received, including a USB 3.0 port to further confuse unsuspecting customers who may believe that a blue port is proof of what was advertised. They asked me in this review form to rate the product on “warmth” and “sheerness” as well, which I’ve done with a single star. What are these rating metrics? Unknown. The noticeable coil whine and charging irregularities cause me to doubt the safety and quality of this adapter’s internals; not only from the perspective of this adapter’s own longevity, but the safety of the expensive devices I would intend to connect to both sides of this adapter. For myself, I’m returning this item and keeping the Apple A1619. Tested with iPhone 8 and iPad Pro 10.5 running iOS/iPadOS 14.2 Read more
