Lightning cable stuck inside my iPad!

Like everybody else, i have the same issue with the lightning charger's flimsy end

breaking off and getting stucked inside the iPad. I am so so disappointed

with this...


I didn't know how to go about it

at first - so I took it to a nearby apple store only to be told that i would have

to pay $199.99 for a replacement !?!?


im very disappointed i dont know what else to say

You could put a drop of super glue on the end of a straight screwdriver and bond it to the broken connector. Then pull out slowly. If you get it partially out, you could use tweezers.
