Switching from Lightning to USB C and have several adapters that are lightning that I want to know if they will work if I get a Lightning to USB C connector??

Hoping to get some help.


I have a Lightning to USB Camera 3 Adapter, Lightning to SD Card Reader and Lightning Digital AV adapter.


I have just upgraded my iPhone and iPad which are now USB C but before I go out and spend £29 on a Lightning to USB C Adapter, can someone tell me that that will allow the above two adapters and card reader to work with my new devices?


Thanks for any help.

iPad mini (6th generation)

Yes, a Lightning to USB-C adapter should allow your Lightning-based accessories to work with your new USB-C devices like the iPad mini (6th generation) and your iPhone with a USB-C port.


The Lightning to USB Camera 3 Adapter, Lightning to SD Card Reader, and Lightning Digital AV adapter should function properly when connected through a Lightning to USB-C adapter. It essentially acts as a bridge between the Lightning connectors of your accessories and the USB-C port on your new devices.


Before purchasing the adapter, ensure it's compatible with your specific iPad and iPhone models and that it supports the functionalities you require for your accessories.
