i’m confused cuz for me, i plug in the drive but no name pops up

[@mrjor]

same here

[@photovideooz4084]

Apple : I want to make this process extremely difficult, so you pay more for storage!

[@crazyyLexa]

How is that even difficult? 😂 Did you even watch the video?

[@ms.pirate]

@Photovideooz4084 UGH SO TRUE! I needed to empty out my old iphone, because it was jam pact full. But I cant save my sh1t on a flash drive because of all of these updates 🤦‍♀️

[@ilanpav]

Btw, apple didn't implement "Safly eject USB" button, so your drive might get corrupted. Nicely done apple!

[@iaa1575]

Great job, you explained the process better than the manufacture instructions.

[@MiaHessMusic]

Thank you so much!!!! Perfect!!! Worked great with a flash drive.

[@personn5921]

Perfect! Just what I’m looking for.

[@jobgomez3684]

Seriously appreciate your video 🙏🤜🤛

[@reneperez2126]

Great vid thanks so basically you just use an otg usb to lightning adapter and files can be moved to from the device, I didnt know of this adapter so Ive spent some money buying pendrives which in turn only work with weird chinese apps to set a connection with the device ,

[@gratitudetouniverse3754]

What Thumb drive can you use to save the videos and pictures for an old iphone from 2013 ? Thanks

[@Fix.369]

GratitudetoUniverse Bro, Unless your iPhone is running on iOS 13 or later, so you might not able to use thumb drive on any iPhone from 2013.😊

[@manalimistry922]

[@rabidanish708]

Otg adapter

[@newagain9964]

[@elixus555]

can this work on iphone 6s running ios 15.8 ?

[@Fix.369]

erickstieve4368 Bro, It can work on it.😊

[@tacosaurus7642]

There should be some sort of unmount button. Please make sure you find the unmount button or turn off your iPhone before you take out your thumb drive unless you want to risk completely destroying all of the data on it. I don't have an iPhone I'm trying to help my girlfriend get more storage for her phone so I can't tell you how to unmount your thumb drive but I really don't want anybody to lose any of their precious data or anything like that so please watch out for that 🙏

[@Fix.369]

tacosaurus7642 Bro, Thank you for bringing up this important point about safely removing or unmounting a USB drive before physically disconnecting it from an iPhone. You're correct that failing to do so could potentially lead to data loss or corruption.😊

[@commoditiesandmusicwzothei9112]

What adapter is that?

[@Fix.369]

Bro, It’s a Lightning to USB Converter.😊

[@TheOwl11526]

i accidentally ignore the device... how can i recover the unignore??? i cant detect once i plug back in and it wont work! please help!

[@Fix.369]

Jason Chang Bro, Restart your Phone then connect it again, it should fix the issue.😊

[@hafizhamir18]

there are some pendrives that cannot be entered because the pendrive storage is too large. So what is the limit of gb pendrive that can be used?

[@Fix.369]

Abdul Hafiz Hamir Bro, If your USB Drive is not showing up, then check it’s format, According to Apple Support the USB Drive must be in FAT, FAT32, exFAT (FAT64), or APFS format. There is no mention of any storage limit. 😊

[@alanaakana3157]

Whenever I do this, the actual video doesn’t show up just a photo of the video I uploaded 😑

[@Fix.369]

Alana Akana Sis, Have you properly moved videos as we showed in the video, still the process is not working.😊

[@markleegend]

I have 13 pro max but the oth card reader doesn't work

[@Fix.369]

Markleegend Bro, Make sure the USB drive is in exFat, otherwise it might not work.
