Will this work with an iPhone 5? I film on the iPhone and am looking for a compatible wireless microphone so I can stand and move away from the camera

I just check apple website and the connection is mono. you can connect this but you need a mono adapter in order to connect this wireless stereo. You can buy the adapter from mono to stereo adapter. Mono has one grove in male connection. Stereo has two grove

This is a monophonic device. It says it has "2 channels" but that's referring to radio channels to help with radio noise interference. You should get an adapter like this that splits the iPhone / iPod plug into separate mic and headphone plugs --> StarTech.com Headset adapter for headsets with separate headphone / microphone plugs - 3.5mm 4 position to 2x 3 position 3.5mm M/F . You'd plug the receiver's output into the mic plug of this adapter (both 3.5 mm), then use the wireless transmitter pack with the included Lav mic.

Depends if you have a 3.5mm connection on your iphone Maybe your best bet is call apple and ask them

You need an adapter for the iPhone because this isn't designed for the iPhone. The adapter should allow you to plug this mic into it and then the adapter into the iPhone and it should work.

I'm 99% sure it will. It's a simple mic. It worked with my iPad 3 with no setup required. Plus, I think I read some comments where kids were using it with their iPhones to record their professors in class. And I think some reporters said they used it for recording interviews on the go.

I've tested it with iPhone 4s as well as iPhone 5s (with 30-pin to Lightning adapter), and will record stereo input with the camera app. Both phones were running iOS 7.0.3.

No, I just tried it. As soon as the iPhone camera starts recording it stops the recording in the Rode app. You need to shoot your video on a separate device.

No. It can NOT directly connect to an iPhone. The jacks are the same diameter and it will physically fit but but iPhones use a TRRS plug this mic has a "normal" TRS. You can buy adaptors. Ignore the comment here about "XLR". This mic is not an XLR mic.

I have a iPhone4 and iPod touch 4th gen. The mic works great on both of those.

My Tascom had the iPhone 4/IPad connector, so I tried a lightning adapter with it on my iPhone 5. The mic's blue LED light did not come on, meaning it would not function with the adapter attached. I know there is a Tascam app for iPhone -- MAYBE it might let you connect through the adapter. I could not find a Tascam mic with a direct Lightning connector, but keep your eye out -- the demand may push the company to release one. Sorry.

ONLY with an adapter. Audio Technica makes a good adapter that's pretty cheap, but just so no one gets the wrong idea-these little microphones REQUIRE AN ADAPTER to work with an iPhone. The problem is that iPhones have a different headphone socket than normal phones and there's a lot of switching circuitry in iPhones that controls what it thinks of as the microphone.

It does work with the iphone. Just remember there is no speakers here, so it will only be a mic and can only be used on memo recordings. Once you plug the mic into the iphone head jack, it shuts off the iphone speaker to hear anything. This mic was designed for video cameras, so that someone can stand at a distance in front of the camera, and may be a bit cumbersome for voice memos on an iphone, or any other personal memo device; because of the extensively long cord.

Practically, yes. It will reach your subject from there, and even farther - the cord is very long. I don't know anything about the iPhone 5 though, so I can't say that it will work properly with that particular piece of tech. If you have previously recorded through the headphone jack, that it will work fine. The jack is just a standard stereo mini plug, or 1/8" stereo plug.

We just tried it on an iPhone 4 and it didn't work. It works great with an audio recorder though! It's worth the additional investment. :)

its just a mic. if the iphone has a hole for a mic it will work. if it dosnt it wont. please think.

This was a great microphone for that. Unfortunately for me the plug end which snaps into the iphone fell apart in about a month of use and although Edutige support answered quickly, things died and I never received the RMA to replace. If you buy, I believe you will be happy with the experience, especially if it stays together. Good luck.

I think I read somewhere, or saw a YouTube vid that explained that plugging a Lavalier mic directly into a PC using the mic jack doesn't produce good results because there is no power. Seems odd that connecting to an iPhone works great, but not a laptop, but that's what the article said. I use the Rhode when recording to my iPhone, and it is superb. For recording to Camtasia I use a USB mic.

As an Android user I have no idea what will and won't work with iOS sadly. Though I will reiterate, odds are your phone's built in mic is probably just as good as this.
