6-in-1 Card Reader for iPhone and iPad

This adapter connects CF, SD, TF, XD and M2 memory cards to Lightning-equipped iPhone and iPad models. It is built for photographers who want to move images from a camera card to an iOS device without a computer or a dedicated app. The unit also passes power through the Lightning port so the host device can charge while the transfer runs.

Single-card limit and iOS file rules

Only one memory card can be active at a time; inserting two or more cards simultaneously will not work. The iOS Photos app only recognises files placed inside a folder named DCIM that follow the naming pattern MVI_0001.JPG or IMG_0001.JPG with unique sequential numbers. The adapter operates at 3.3 V to 4.0 V and draws 100 mA, and it requires iOS 9.1 or later.

Replaces computer-based import workflows

This reader removes the step of copying photos to a computer and syncing through iTunes. The jump is worth it when you need to review or back up images in the field and have a compatible Lightning iPhone or iPad to hand. It does not help users with USB-C iPad models or anyone who needs to read multiple cards at once.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 6-in-1 or the 8-in-1 version of this card reader?

The manufacturer highlights list it as an 8-in-1 type, while the product name and description describe a 6-in-1 adapter with CF, SD, TF, XD, M2 and Lightning charging ports.

What does the 100 mA working current mean when I use it with my iPhone?

The adapter draws up to 100 mA at 3.3–4.0 V while reading a card, so it adds only a small load to your charger and will not slow down normal charging.

Which iOS versions does the Lightning interface actually support?

It works with iOS 9.1 and higher on iPhone 5, 5S, 6, 7, 8, X, XS, XR, 11, 12, 13 and compatible iPad models.
