[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1940345, member: 204485"] There have been "issues" with these adaptors since my old iPhone 7. It's simply Apple trying to protect their devices and users from cheap knock off products that might break the device. Sometimes they do go a bit overboard with these precautions. I have learned that these adaptors are not just devices that change the shape of the plug, they have tiny chips in them that control and adapt the way the data is transferred, like resistance (ohms) and channel seperation. I have one myself that does work. [ATTACH type="full"]39181[/ATTACH] I did have another, an Apple product which worked on my SE 2 but returned a "Unrecognised accessory" message when plugged into my wife's iPhone 10. So it's hit or miss but at least if you buy it in a store you can try it before you buy it. [/QUOTE]
