Hello, how will this work with my iPhone 4? can I have my conversation come through the radio? or just use it as a car charger? Thanks

This Belk Tunebase FM transmitter is for older phones that have the wide charger connection; so yes it will work with your iPhone 4. It won't work with new iPhones because of the narrower charger connection. You probably won't be able to use it as a bluetooth option unless your car has the capability. I use mine for music and as a car charger. It works well - every so often I'll have interference but it's not the rule. I hope this has helped you.

No I just switch it from radio to Aux. I plug the Aux end into the car outlet NOT on the phone, and the phone to the main iPhone charger. It's weird but that's how it works for my phone.

The connection to the FM transmitter is done through the headphone jack on the car mount. I am not positive but I would assume all sound going to that jack from your phone would be transmitted to your radio's FM receiver. The radio is an output-only device so your music would be played on the radio. However, there would be no way for your part of a phone conversation to be transmitted back to your phone.

this device will let you connect via a radio frequency to your car and you connect your phone to the device via bluetooth.while it's connected you can also take calls via speakerphone which you will hear through your speakers. The audio jack in your car can be you separately but cannot be used with this device you would have to plug it into your phone then to the audio jack.

This unit is intended to broadcast Bluetooth so the only setup you can think about is plugin in to your iPhone and broadcast music. Still I think it would not work because the Bluetooth used in cars are primarily for phone calls. When I had an iPhone, I could not even use a regular Bluetooth headset to listen to music. I doubt it would work in a car.

If your charger has a USB connectivity you can use this as a charger. I have an iPhone for example. I take the part that plugs into the wall off and put the USB end in the adapter. You can charge your phone and play music at the same time. The auxiliary chord goes in my iphone where headphones go. The music plays through the radio speakers in the car.

Yes I have an iphone 4 (work mobile) and an iPhone 5 (Personal Mobile) and both work. It seems to work with any mobile device that has Bluetooth. I wish it had a mute button but that may not be something easy to integrate into a Bluetooth device, I do not know. It works great. If it has been "on" but Bluetooth on my phone has been turned off in settings for a while, I notice it does not want to "link up" again with the iPhone once Bluetooth is turned back on. I found the solution was to just tap the power button on the ION ISPOD off and then back on and it synchs fine. My iPhone also does this with my car Bluetooth so I think it is more of an issue with the iPhone and not the ION. I'm happy with mine.

It works great out side the car as a speaker phone and for music/podcasts.I use it this way all the time. You can use it while it is charging too. It is a challenge to hold the unit without pressing one of the buttons.I have mine paired with an iPhone 5s and it works great. I have never been able to make the FM transmitter work as well as its predecessor did. The built in speaker is generally loud enough that its not needed.

The charger is only used for charging the ipod, the aux cable allows you to play music through your radio, as long as you have an aux input in your car.

Yes it will work. I have an iPhone 4 my self and it works for both. You can also plug it into the Aux plug in and it will still work either way. But yes, it works for both music and phone calls.

Its Bluetooth compatible with my cell phone . I can talk through cb speakers and call out through cb speakers.When you talking on cb and your bluetooth compatible cell phone rings the cb auto goes to phone call through cb.Giving you hands free capabilty to use your cell phone through CB radio. Now for radio I really dont know what you wanting to do through radio.

I'm not sure. I had my phone (a Samsung Galaxy Note 4) charging with a USB hub that was plugged into my cigarette lighter and was using Pandora through the bluetooth connection while doing it, and that seemed to work okay. But I haven't tried having the phone plugged into the USB connection on the radio because I haven't needed to - the bluetooth works great. I also use it for answering and talking on my phone. Hope this helps some.

Does anyone with an iPhone have experience with using this product? I, like the original questioner, need this device just for media/music. My car's Bluetooth is set up for Phone calling/receiving. Apple iPhone does not allow you to set up "Phone only" and "Media only" profiles for Bluetooth like Android does. I'm curious to hear from someone who has used this and owns an iPhone.

The only charger you can use is the one that comes with the iPhone. If you have an aftermarket charger, they are wider and fatter, and it WILL NOT fit. You also have to unscrew a button to be able to plug in your earbuds. The chances of losing this button are high. In my opinion, it's a bad design.

Can't speak as to how well it works with the IPhone 5(s). I have in on an IPhone 4S. I believe I rated a 4 because you cannot plug your headphone or your car cable into the 1.5mm jack because they not allow for enough clearing room.

Hey Cynthia,I haven't tried to charge my phone with this item. When I received it, I looked for a USB port on it to charge my phone with. It didn't have it, so I didn't bother trying to use it to charge my phone. I have used it as a flashlight and a radio with much satisfaction!
