Can I use a micro SD card with my iPhone?

Am I able to use a micro sd card with my iPhone? I have a 16GB sd card that I would like to use if possible.

Thanks

Indeed.


The iPhone 5c like all other iPhones cannot be opened by the user, much less disassembled to look behind the battery.

But if you did open it up, you'd find absolutely nothing behind the battery:

Like all iPhones it has a solid state storage device which is not removable, is located on the right side of the iPhone not behind the battery, and is not an SD card.


There is no SD card slot there.


Apple does not and has never made iPhone's with SD card slots.


So like you say, research before posting misleading information.

Get a cheap android tablet with sd card support, up to 64 GBs then transfere files over from iphone to the sd card in the tablet not through bluetooth, but via wifi. If you in area with poor or no mobile signal make sure you first turn phone into hotspot , which is built in the iOS , with a wifi transfere app you can move files to sd card in android device, or pc/mac. However if you using iphone 8gb it is recomended to film no longer than 5 mins , before moving the files. Get a encoder app to convert the mov to mp4 , also a another video app that can selectivly film resolutions of choice, to get quality vs record length to fit in storage.
