Can I plug this into a USB port in my truck to keep it powered up and can I stream music on it from my iPhone5s?

Yes to both questions. However, the sound quality isn't the best for music.

Yes, to both. The power plug that comes with the unit is for a USB connection. And, yes, you can play your tunes from your iPhone to the device, but keep in mind, the speaker is small.

My car doesn't have USB port but it would likely work. I can play files using Clip through my computer. If you are going to play it through car system I hope to God your using FLAC and not MP3 files.

Should, connect, but can be an FM frequency challenge. I actually returned mine. Even in southern delaware where there are not a lot of high powered radio stations, I got a lot of interference and need to switch frequencies. For the same price, about, I bought a usb ready receiver to replace to manufacturer unit in my 97 miata. Plug the iPhone in with a lightning cable and rock on. Control from the head unit or the phone. Charges at the same time. &#128526;

It can stream only music over Bluetooth no videos yet. How ever you can connect your phone with usb and play it from your phone memory

If it is connected to the HDMI plugin then you can listen to music. You can not listen to iPhone because they were made for PS3 and music.

Yes, you can.. but it can only be plugged using the AUX jack (USB doesnt work for ipods)

Actually it is NOT a charging port. I have played songs on the USB but have never divided them into playlists so can't help you there. Sorry

Think this has to be plugged into a power supply but it can play from iPhone 5

This is not the solution for that, i have one and it is too quiet. You either need to buy a higher output one or posibly if you have a truck use a genorator to run a household type stereo. Or even just crank up the music in the car if the cars stereo is good enough

My experience is that the USB is only used to POWER the device, not to actually transfer music data. To hear the music you have to use the headphone port on the opposite side and plug THAT into a "line in" on the car stereo. If you don't have a "line in" on your stereo, this product is probably not for you. Cheers.

No this will not. i use it for GPS and Music streaming of my Iphone to the radio on my Touring motorcycle through the AUX port.There are better devices on the market for that, I use a Parrot System in my truck or look at the Belkin.

Yes you can power this through a wall socket. You need a USB adaptor (same as IPhone). Output is on back.

It only reads your cars computer functions and parameters when plugged into the obd port, has nothing to do with the radio so it won't work to stream music. You need radio with Bluetooth or an auxiliary port to stream your music from your phone

No. You can plug in an iPhone. HOWEVER I found a way around that. Cablejive has a product called the dockboss that allows you to plus any usb into an ipod base with power and aux input

I don't have a Iphone so can't definitively answer. But I have a motorolla and am streaming spotify and while using GPS it will break into the music. If your like me and like Rock and at high volumes TURN RIGHT IN 1 MILE over my amped speakers will get your attention. heh.

USB will only deliver power. The sound has to go through the cables to AUX.

You can definitely use an aux cable to play music. But I am not sure whether the usb stick works?
