I was able to charge my iphone three times with this device (using an adapter cube) . However, when the person that recommended I purchase this product saw mine (they have one as well) asked why I didn't have the "cap" on the end of the device, I stated that mine did not come with a 'cap'. They said it should have. That's the reason I was returning the item. I wanted to replace the complete item with one that comes with a cap over the part that fits into the Apple product. I would imagine that because there was no cap (on the item I received), the end may have gotten damaged having no protection on it.

I didn't have any issues charging it,I had Iphone 5 it worked fine, now with Iphone 6 plus also it works fine, if it doesn't work just send it back for replacement.

I had the exact same problem and I returned the product. It says it will charge IPhone 5 and 6 but mine did not work.

I had no luck using it to charge iPhones. If memory serves, it's output is inadequate.

I have not yet tried to use the device to charge other devices, but the radio, light and hand crank to charge all work well. I do not have an iphone, so I wouldn't be able to answer this any better than the above, but the usb port should work to charge any device that would allow a usb charging jack. Good luck.

Hi Ryan Any usb device that is 2.4A or less will work. Majority if not all. iPods, iPhones, iPads, smartphones and tablets will charge. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. RND

I tried to charge iPad2 and iPad3 (separately on 2A port). Both iPads say that they are not charging.

I have an iPhone and it's very hard to get it to charge, you have to force it in and keep checking to make sure it's charging. The original charge cord is much easier and reliable. Good luck

We have never had a problem with this. Maybe try to unplug and re start? We only use it on our iPhone 4 and it seems to work well. Sorry.

I've tried to charge it with the wall jack that came with my iPhone 4s. The light blinks for a few minutes (indicating that it's charging), but then stops and doesn't continue to charge. So I have to either plug it into my computer or use my husband's samsung chargers to work. Not sure why this is.

It charged my iphone 4 and it should charge the 5. it is a USB connection. I have an Iphone 5 now and will give it a try this weekend.

Sounds like a defective unit. I've been able to fully charge two Droid 4 mobile devices from almost dead- red battery meter 5%.

Sometimes the problem is the cable you use. If the USB cable is too thin the device will not charge. Try with a good cable. If the device does not charge, the device must be defective.

Make sure you are charging from the right port. If that's correct. .make sure it's charged for 24 hrs. ..If not successful. .its faulty. ..assuming that your charging a device has a good battery and the voltage is correct

Apple (Iphone etc) products have their own connectors. This item has micro usb which iphones dont use - they have proprietary connector. I'd check for an adapter or return this and get an apple brand charger. sorry!

I have an iPhone. This is unable to charge. Try Goal Zero solar panels-very small and work well.

I sent mine back. It didn't charge my iPhone in a reasonable time. Couldn't see keeping it. Sorry.

Check the charging light is on, if it is you may have got a dud! It should work
