A:Answer If your TV can read USB flash drives, you may be able to ready your iphone as if it is a flash drive and show picture or videos saved on your camera roll.
If you want to show YouTube videos or other streaming videos,this cable won't work for that - it's for charging your phone or syncing to a computer.
To watch videos, you need the Apple A/V adapter cable, which costs $40-$50 (it's made by Apple). If your TV is AirPlay compatible or is a smart TV that
has an app that supports AirPlay, you can use that without any cables or hardware. You can also buy an AppleTV, which does support AirPlay, connect it to your
TV, and use AirPlay on your iPhone to send video to the AppleTV (and your TV). You can also try buying a Chromecast video and install apps or use the Chrome
browser on your iphone to display videos.
