Does this work with the otterbox iphone 4 defender case without having to take it off to dock?

I bought it for my son awhile ago. As far as i remember it does work without removing case.

This dock works great on the iHome radio and alarm. I use it all the time now as my charger.

yes, that is how i use it.. I put it on my music player and it charges while playing using the adapter.. btw have used it for over and year and bought another one for ...what ifs..

Don't waste your money. Not strong enough to hold phone with the otter box.

It does however was only able to use it about a week before the connection came loose and couldn't support phone

This dock ONLY works with the phone itself. The phone can NOT be in any type of case. It's a tight fit with just the phone.

Nooo it doesnt work!!! I have it and i have dock and i have to take the case off everytime i need to charge it!!! It sucks but i dont know if there is a case that would work with the dock

Yes, though only if it is a slim case. There is an insert on the dock that can be removed if using a case.

It works with all my cases but not sure which case you have. Yes it works with a dock just fine since it's just an extension cord.

So, if you have a case it won't charge properly? I have an iPhone 4 with a slim rubber case and am worried that if I buy this product, I'll have to remove my iPhone from the case every time I want to dock it.. would that be the case?

It will! Please be careful with doing anything on the phone on the dock because it doesn't have any wall support, only connected part is holding it vertically. You will not need to remove the case. It is a great purchase overall except when music stops playing, it turns itself off after a while rather than staying on all the time. I am not sure if this is a special feature or a defect but it is not a big deal really.

I don't think so. I just have an iPod touch and I always take my cover off before I put it on this dock. The speaker dock comes with 3 different plastic plates to adjust for different models of iPod/ iPhones but I think you'll have to take the Otterbox off.

if the dock has a divot where the phone sits in, no. If the dock has a flat surface without a prong support piece, yes. (if you leave the case door open)

I tried to fit the iPhone on the dock with the otterbox on and it didn't seat far enough. I tried it with both kinds of otterbox. It may be possible to trim though. I'm using my old iphone 4 with just screen cover and it seems to work fine, Menah Menah,

I have used a case with it but it is a thin case. I have no idea if the case you are interested in will work. I made sure the case I used said it was a thin case before I bought it. Also what I didn't know is there is a piece inside the dock that has to be removed if you have a case on your phone.

I found this dock works only without the case. I had to remove my very thin silicone case In order for the phone to fit in the dock.

No. I have www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EPLTC1I & I have to take the case off to fit it in this dock.

I too have the iPhone4 in an Otterbox; there's a couple of options: 1) buy the 30 pin extender so you can use the top docking port; 2) use the USB port in the back of the iHome with the iPhone's charging cord (USB to 30 pin cord). The Otterbox design makes it difficult to use the top docking port without the extender; I keep my iPod in the top docking port and use the USB for the iPhone. Hope this helps.

Will not work with my iPhone 6 otterbox defender case. Not sure on other models.

I have a Pt case and with the removable cradle removed, it works fine. I have had the dock for several months now.

No. I have a galaxy phone with a slim case and I still have to remove the case for it to fit properly and secure. It's a wonderful dock otherwise. I love it
