Do I have to remove my iPhone/iPad from their cases in order to use this or can I leave cases in place and still charge?

You'll probably need to take it out of it case to dock and charge on top but it has a USB slot on the back you can plug a charger in. We have two and that's how my daughter does it.

If you are charging your unit on the top, you need to remove the case. If you are using the charging cord that came with the unit in the back, you do not need to remove the case.

With the charging case, you are able to turn the charge on or off. So if both the phone and case are charged, with the case "off", your iPhone battery will be used first.

No need to remove the case for charging. Its perfectly working with the case. :)

you have to take the case off and then charge it. I had another case on and i had to take it off whenever I was charging it in my car.

Yes you can charge your phone without removing it from the case. I love my case I have dropped my phone a few times and the case has done it's done it's job. It protected my phone.

If attached by way of USB or AC Adapter, the case and iPhone will charge together. My unit has served me well, good luck.

No you have to take the case off so it can fit sadly and you can't just take it any where it has to be plugged in . But it's cool because its hands free and any where you use the iPad I will be out for hours .

Yes, there is piece you remove from the charger if you have a case. My case is very slim. It sometimes requires some wiggling to make sure it is connected.

yes it can be charged in the case. i have never attempted to run it out of a charge, but with casual use it will go several days before needing a charge. it has an auto off feature that saves the battery (i.e. the key board disconnects itself from the ipad and turns itself off even though the 'on/off' switch is still in the 'on' position).

It gets charged using the IPhone charger. If u charge while the IPhone is in it, it will charge the IPhone first and once it's fully charged then the case will start to charge.

The Case has to be charged separately. However, I only use it when I travel. I have had it for a year and still have not charged the case. I love it!

Since you use your own charging cord in the device, the answer would be yes. I have an iPhone and I had to thread my iPhone charging cord, and my iPad charging cord through the device and then you plug your phone and tablet directly into the charger cord. The device is actually a "holder" for the phone and tablet....in itself the device is not a charger. When I bought it I thought I was buying a charger and that was not the case. However, it is a convenient device for holding my phone and iPad upright as opposed to laying the on the counter to charge. Hope this answers your question.

I don't understand the question. It is all one unit. If you mean can you leave the Iphone case one the phone, it depends upon the case. The first case I had was fine, but the port doesn't reach high enough to connect with my new case.

Well that's actually how the case is supposed to be used but I don't suppose that keeping the case turned on even when the iPhone is decently charged will damage the phone per say however I would stick to the recommended use

I guess it would depend on what type of protective case you use. I use the kind that is magnetic and just covers the glass face of my iPad. I have no problem charging my iPad with the cover on. If your cover blocks the charging port, you would probably have to remove it.

You do not have to take it out of the case , there is a slot for the charger to plug in , I now have two cases and I love them both

Yes, with the usual caveat: if you have a case, you will almost certainly need to remove it to dock the iPhone. I bought a cheap Minisuit case, and modified it slightly with scissors to permit it to dock.
