The iHome iP99 will. It's designed for iPhone but will work for iPod Nano 4th Gen.

It will not charge a 4th Gen. Ipod Nano, I know that for a fact from firsthand experience...

NO! Do not plug your iPhone into this clock radio. It is not made for iPhone, only iPod! My daughters iH6 radio started smoking from being overloaded from her putting the iPhone on it to play and charge. DO NOT use for iPhone!

I works beautifully with the Ipod Touch 4th Generation. I did write a review after purchasing this unit and it is really nice, so glad I own it...you will be, too!!!

Yes, the one I bought from amazon chargers as well as connects iPod to the radio. I recently also tried an old iPod mini and it works well also!!

The users manual states that this system is compatible with the iPod touch 1st & 2nd gen models. I tried it with my 4 gen model and it does not work. Too bad because the system sounds wonderful. Anybody else have this issue?

If your nano 4th gen has the same plug as the conventional ipod, then, yes charge and play via the cord. Yes, you can skip songs with the buttons on the ipod. The only control on the Scosche is stop and go for the ipod. The other controls are to change broadcast frequency.

Yes, i got this at xmas and everything worked fine (remote, recharging, playing) with the 4th gen Nano. The only thing to be careful of, is make sure you push it all the way down into the base. if it isn't fully seated it will play, but won't recharge and the remote won't work. it's a good little unit.

I wanted to know this as well, and as I was going through the reviews one person said: "I purchased two of these, and the LCD display did not work on one. They do not charge an iPod touch (fourth-generation), so if you were planning to listen to your tunes for hours while driving down the road; you had better make a different plan. Hours later, your battery will be dead. On the other hand, the FM transmitter seems to work okay without the plug-in attachment. "

I do not know which generation Ipod I have (5 years old) but it does function properly except for the charging indicator. My ipod is always plugged in, but when wokeup shows ipod battery is low. This does not affect how I use the unit-basically a storage/playback unit for my cd collection. I think they showed a compatibility chart in the online manual?

Return the AppRadio. You will not enjoy it even if the iPod magically starts working. There are new built-in Apple Play radios on the horizon. Wait. You'll be glad you did. Here's an article about Apple's CarPlay announced 03/04/2014: http://gu.com/p/3n84n

I do not know the connector of Ipod nano Generation 7, but you can always use a cable and connect it to the USB port. That's what I do with my old iphone which now only plays pandora. I find to be more easy to hand the ipod connected to a cable than using the docking station.

My friend gave me one for free. It works great with my 3rd gen Nano. It adds the "radio" function to the ipod menu. I have used it simply for the remote option (not in radio mode) and didn't notice the extra drain on the battery that others complain about.

If you go by others' reviews of this product on Amazon, even though it claims to be compatible with all ipods, it will not, in fact, charge the 2nd gen Touch or the 4th gen Nano. So it will still play the music but it won't charge it. A dealbreaker in my opinion but it still might be worth it for some.

You can charge all iPods with 30 pin connector and it only has a 3.5mm jack that will play music only from other products but will not act as a usb charger. Thank you

I purchased the dock for use with a second gen iPod Nano. Works great and charges it too. The only catch is the dock is bigger than the Nano. LOL. Keeps it charged. Even if I'm playing CD's or listening to networked radio or Pandora I still have to turn the iPod off manually when powering down the receiver which is the only annoyance. The receiver remote will also control the iPod so I can skip songs or replay them. It is pretty cool to have some remote control over the iPod.
