Q: Can I display iPhone on monitor using a Lightning Digital AV Adapter if I connect it to the monitor with an hdmi to VGA adapter cable?

Can I display my iPhone onto a monitor using the Lightning Digital AV Adapter if I connect it to the monitor using and hdmi to vga adapter?  This monitor does not have an hdmi port so that is why I am needing to convert it to vga.  And I am trying to get around having to buy the Lightning VGA adapter.

    You should be able to use the HDMI to VGA adapter just fine to view the iPhone screen.

     

    But you won't be able to play protected content since VGA being analog has no HDCP support.  So no playback of movies bought from iTunes or things like that.
