Can the USB ports be used for any item? Do the designations for iPad, Android, and tablet really matter?

works really well, we plug in android phones an ipod and tablet...have not paid much attention to which port, but great when you have multiple people traveling to all be able to charge whatever they need to use

I try to use the ipad and tablet for my higher powered devices, but have also used whatever available cord at times. I've not had any issues with "mixing" them up. I many times have a Kindle Fire HDX, Samsung Galaxy phone and the gps charging at the same time and haven't looked at which was plugged in where. They all charged just fine. I gave one to my son for Christmas and they do not have an ipad, but two phones and gps and kindle fire - and it works on any cord for them as well.

Somewhat. I have three of them now. One is all that we are using as the tablet won't work for some reason. The USB is on the side and the key arrangement is only different for brackets, apostrophe, & such.

The idea you put forward can be realized to some extent. This hub generally could charge devices like your iphone or android phones through the usb 3.0 port. But some special devices like ipad or Samsung PAD will fail. After all the ordinary usb ports are not equal to charging ports.

this will work for any tablet with USB, it's not made for any particular brand.

With the iPad, no. The iPad is not USB capable since Apple likes to make their devices crapunique. In other words, no USB port or USB kernel level driver for custom software = never USB on iPad for these applications.With the Paypal Swiper for the computer (USB) it could work, on the iPad no.

Yes, you can plug any USB device. This is the best tablet I've had. Especially combined with this keyboard.I've owned iPad, iPad mini, Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and a Lenovo Ideapad.

I use it for my ipad and my kindle fire. You just need the correct adapter for yor galaxy and your USB.

Don't know. I have an iPad but it doesn't have a USB port. Works great with my MS Surface Pro.

Probably not, as this is intended for an Android device. Try Googling "USB for iPad" to see some potential connectivity methods.

Most of the android tablet have a different usb connection. So no I don't think it will work

I know their smart ports can charge the tablets for both brands, generic port is good for the smart phones. The generic port can charge my ipad & Samsung s3, but not my Samsung Tab3.

Sorry i missed the part that you need to buy a convertor to USB since IPAD has to USB port

This wouldn't work for that. Windows and OS X PCs support USB devices but iOS and Android devices don't. In other words this works fine for Windows and OS X, wouldn't work with anything else.

I don't know what kind of port that tablet has. This is a micro USB with a standard USB.

For iPad, you have to use the port labeled for iPad (ports 1&3) because iPad required 5V, 2.1A input. Other devices it doesn't matter.

As far as I can tell, you can charge anything that uses a USB charger. I have charges an iPad on it with no problem.

Not sure, I use it with an iPad and it doesn't work with the USB. But I haven't tried it with an android tablet.
