I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with the "otter box". The connection adapter seems to be the same size as any charger would be though. I will say that it worked well for my old ipod classic as well as my sisters iphone 5. It plays as well as charges both. - I loaned it to my sister to try it and ended up buying myself a new one since she liked it so much. - It's awsome for the price. I recommend it highly.

Yes. It worked for me. (I used it to attach my otter box bound iphone 4s to my Sonos cradle.) But I do not recommend this device, because the portion that locks into the iphone fell apart with a couple weeks of usage. Very poorly made. If you can find the same devise made by another company, I would recommend trying it instead.

Mine works awesome!! Happen to have the 5s and I use an adapter along with it. I also got it to hook up with my ihome and it works great! Good luck

That's pretty much what I wanted the cable for but it did not work. It did charge the iphone but it did not play music from my the speaker box.

Connections are fairly substantial. I'm unsure if it will fit with beefier cases. I use it on an iPhone 4s and an ipad 3. I don't have cases for either bit I am not sure. They perform flawlessly for my needs. I checked it on a life proof case and it seemed too big for that case without forcing it. Unsure about otter.

Hi Tony. I returned this product because it did not work. It didn't charge my iPhone 4s or my iPad and it didn't play music through my iHome docking station. Other reviewers said the same thing. I bought one that works very well through cellphoneshop.net.

I have a iphone 4s as well but I have a lifeproof case. It will not connect to that. My cable would not play music at all on my ipod. Only charge my ipod.

Yes and no. The 4s will dock with it and play but I've had problems with it repeatedly cutting out and my phone then saying it's not compatible with the device. Then I have to remove it from the dock and reset it to get to play/charge again. Sometimes it works well, other times it does this repeatedly so it's hit or miss. Right now I'm using a cable with the "line in" port on it and connecting that to my phone so I can listen to music but that doesn't charge the phone. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it.

The dock is basically just a speaker (and turns your phone into an alarm clock when you use the app with it). Once your phone is docked you can play any music. As long as you have the apps for Pandora or Spotify there's no reason you shouldn't be able to play music from them. Just keep in mind it's not a large speaker so it won't have the same sound production as a larger docking station.

If your iPhone case is especially think I'm fairly certain it wouldn't work. The audio connector on the cable isn't especially thin or long. A friend of mine with a fairly thin case still needs to remove it to play music.

It will definitely work for an iPhone 4S (that's what I have). As long as your charging port is accessible through the case, then it shouldn't be a problem.

It does not work with my original Bose sounddock (sadly) and this is one of the reason I purchased it. It does work quite nicely with up-to-date docking products, including my son's tower speaker from Brookstone. If your speaker is compatible with an iPhone 4, it will work.

Margret the two Iphone 4s's will fit you might need an adapter for the otterbox cases tho, they make adapters and they are quite handy to have. This is what you would need Patuoxun® Black Exension Dock Extender 30pin Adapter for iPod iPhone 4 4S

I'm guessing it should still work. Only the new iPhones 5's (or possibly some brand new iPods) no longer use the 30-pin to dock. I plug in my iPhone 4s and it plays fine over the stereo. It does come with an extra audio (headphone) cable that you can use as well/instead, but the sound isn't clear coming through that. Plus, the 30-pin plug charges it at the same time.

I only used it for charging. I was not able to play music thru it from my Sony docking station.

I use this cable with an external hard drive loaded with music. It's not made to play music off of a phone. You need a different cable for that. I have a separate cable that connects to the dock connector on my iPhone 4S. I don't know if they make a cable yet for the Lightning connector on the iPhone 5/5S.

I dont think so. I bought it for my docking station to charge and listen to music. Unfortunately it only charges the phone.

Others here have replied that it will work if you add a Dock Extender. I have one on order myself for a different turntable dock, so that it will accommodate my 3Gs with an Otter Box case. I found it online for about $6. Google iPhone Dock Extenders.

I have it hooked up to an ihome radio setup. If the set of speakers is designed to play with the 30pin setup on iPhone's etc then it will work. I bought it strictly to allow me to bypass the docking station that your device plugs into that never seems to work with a case. I can plug this in while my phone is still in an otterbox. Hope this helps.

I believe I saw where someone had a 4S and it worked. The 4S uses the same bottom plug I believe, so it should work. Look over the questions and answers and you should find that answer already in place.I believe I saw where someone had written in that had purchased the radio and their 4S did work with the dock.

No, you are looking for a 8 to 30 pin (iPhone 4 to iPhone 5) adapter. This adapter is a 8 pin to 8 pin , it is used for LifeProof and OtterBox case so you don't have to remove your case to everytime you place it on your docking station. (iHome, Bose and all others like them)

Yes this will work I use this for my cell phone and iPod touch 4. It come with a aux cable that you just plug into your head phone jack.

I used to have the iPhone 4s and it did support it. I still use it to play music and charge both my new iPhone 5s and iPod nano. Make sure you have the right dock insert though as the one it comes with is for the iPhone 3.
