    I needed something to save my videos and thought it would be a good idea. You have to install an app on your phone in order to save images and videos. The app does not work very well. At times it would say that the device was not connected when it was. I thought it would be easier but too much of a hassle.

    I bought this to transfer pictures/video from drone micro SD memory cards to the iPad/iPhone. Works very well and is 100 times faster in transferring the funds then using the drone-ipad connection.

    The lightning port has some play from the main body. Didn’t work with my iPhone because of “power fluctuations” but works with iPad fine.
