Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the iCobra 32GB USB 3.0 Apple Lightning Flash Drive's ample storage and ease of use. Many appreciate its compatibility with Apple devices and the convenience of its dual USB and Lightning connector functionality. However, some users experienced challenges with file transfers and found the accompanying app to be problematic. The charging feature, while noted, received less feedback.

      Hi,

      Please be aware that any photos or videos stored on iCloud are not accessible from our app, and thus cannot be transferred to the iCobra. This is due to security restrictions that Apple has in place. If you are not using iCloud or Photo Stream, please contact our tech support department through our website for further assistance with this issue.

    Bought this device hoping to download files from my iPad. It was supposed to be an easy thing to do but it wasn't. Transferring photos was tedious and frustrating. Will be returning this item and wii have to rely on iCloud for backup storage of my files.

    Have not been able to use the device as intended. I'd hoped to use it to back up my iPhone and I can only get it to save limited files. The instructions included aren't clear and the required software required to download on the iPhone takes a lot of space. Although I asked before purchasing, Customer service had no experience with it. It's probably fine for a more tech savvy person.

    I purchased this item with the need to simply open an email & down load a PDF invoice & plug it in the office pool USB printer & print my orders. It worked for the first week then it started to flash & reset. After a few attempts it works then goes back to non functional. It's more frustrating than helpful. Save your money.

      Hi Oscar,

      From the information you've given it appears as though your iCobra is likely defective. If you are still able to return it to the store I would do so. If you are no longer able to return it, please visit our website and contact tech support for a replacement.

    I originally bought this for my IPhone 6S Plus, but after numerous failed attempts to get it to work I tried it on my wife's IPhone 5 and it finally worked. I wish the packaging had said this or else I would have given it a higher score
