Is the apple port only for apple and will it charge at the same rate if it can be used for android?

Both ports charge at the same rate(5V/2.1A. They are the same. Only the copy on box states they are different. Not really.

Unfortunately I only have Apple products but I have charged my Apple device from both ports and at the same time so I assume that the Android devices would work similarly.

There is no 'Apple port.' It has 2 standard USB charging ports that can be used to charge most any phone with the appropriate cable.

They say in blurb: One "Apple" port, one "non-Apple" port for optimum charging speed.

There are two ports labeled apple, two labelled android. So I match them up accordingly. I don't know what would happen if I didn't. This works for me as I have both kinds.

If you have the USB cord that matches the phone, yes. There is a USB port you can plug any cord into. The charger can charge up to 3 devices at 1 time. You have your old standard Apple connector on one end. The other end has a mini/micro USB connector, you can only use 1 or the other, not both. Then there is the USB port for you to have the ability to plug anything in for charging.

Both ports will work. I have successfully charged both my iPhone and my iPad (2.1 amp port) at the same time.

It has 2 ports that specifically say iPhone or iPad. These ports charge the devices quickly. The other 2 ports are for other devices, i.e., Kindle, wireless keyboard. They do charge the Apple products but very slowly so I wouldn't recommend.

It is supposed to be universal, but it only comes with cables for Android devices. You have to provide the cable if you have an Apple device.

The ports do matter. I tried charging using the Apple port (lower one) on my HTC One (m7) and an overnight charge from got it to about 75% from dead.

According to what I have learned it works with apple devices currently but a newer version than 2.3.3 for android is due out to allow it to work with android devices

Because this charger is compatible with Apple. To do so, they cannot follow the USB charging standard. So, if you have a phone that does, like any android phone, you have to have a special charge-only cable. I really wish that there were at least one high power charger available that did follow the standard.

Yes, 3 of the ports are for 'other than Apple' devices, and the other two are provided for Apple devices. You may charge Apple devices in the 'other than Apple' ports, but because of the lower amperage, the charge will be slower. Unlike some other charging devices, adding devices to the charge does not impact the 2.3 amp ports.

It's just for iPhones and iPads. It uses the unique Apple connector which is not shared by Android devices.

Yes I have iPad retina, iPad mini and iPhone 5S all charge on either port, I ended up buying the 4 port one because I loved the 2 port so much

This is a universal charter for most apple products (phones, tablets). I have never had a complaint using it on my old iPod, iPad. I use it with my Galaxy Android too. Hope that helps. You need, of course, the cords. This plugs into the wall to charge.

as long as the apple os system allows use of the cable it would workios7 is restrictive if your wanting to charge a android device off of one of the usb ports on the macbook air yes it will work otherwise as far as using it for an adapter for any apple device you would need a plug adapter which are available on Amazon hoping this helps :-)

I have an iPhone 4S and an iPad 3. Both can be charged at the same time quite effectively by using the "A" port for the iPad and the "NA" port for the phone as described in other comments here.

i only have apple products, however, the port is for a USB connection, so if you have a USB charging cable, you should be fine.
