Quickly convert your lightning port to a 3.5 mm headphone jack with this flexible 5 inch audio adapter cord. Newer iPhones eliminated the headphone jack to reduce the chance of moisture entering the phone, and to add a new wireless headphone experience. Wireless headphones have batteries that have to be charged and eventually quit working. This audio adapter eliminates the need for charging, plus enables you to enjoy your favorite wired headphones. Apple MFi certified insures that it works with newer iPhones.
