    Works great for me (non-standard use).

    I bought this mic to help me use the Merlin Bird ID app to identify birds by their songs and calls. Since plugging the mic directly into my phone (an iPhone 16 Pro) was impractical, I had to use a usb-c female to female adapter then use a standard usb-c cable to connect the mic to my phone (see my note below). I found that using this mic, did provide advantages over simply using the Merlin app with the built-in mic. It's difficult to perform a true A-B comparison, but Merlin seemed to identify more birds when I use this external mic. I am also able to keep the phone in my pocket. I attached the mic to my hat (yes, I look like a nerd, but it works)! NOTE: To anyone who wants to use a usb-c adapter for any type of usb-c connection, it seems that the orientation (I hesitate to call it polarity) of the cable connection is important. One of the advantages of usb-c is that it doesn't matter which way the cable is turned, but when you use an adapter, that is no longer the case. You may need to flip the cable in order to get whatever you're connecting to work, I'm not sure, but this may not matter if you're just charging and not passing data.

    This question and answer was generated by AI based on customer and product data.
  • How do you mount it to the phone?

    Normal connection: The mic has a male usb-c connector that will plug directly into your device. In my case, I didn't want the mic directly attached to my iPhone, so I used a standard (Apple compliant) usb-c cable and a usb-c female to female adapter. If you do this you'll have to check the orientation of the cable-to-mic connection. In spite of the fact that usb-c usually works with either connector orientation, when using any type of adapter, the orientation becomes important. NOTE: orientation is critical with Apple products, I'm not sure about other devices. The orientation problem may be due to Apple's insistence on making users use only licensed cables and connectors.
