Can I answer calls from earphones connected to 3.5 mm jack on the dock? Thanks
I need to know if my earpods will fully work with the 3.5mm jack. I mean, if I will not only be able to listen to music but to also use my earpods' microphone to make calls.

This dock is specially designed to work with most cases, only ones it would have a problem with are the bigger Otterbox-type cases.

Answer
It will allow those cases to fit just fine.If you can see the little white circle around the lighting connector, thats to create a gap between your phone and the dock which gives enough space for your case and phone to sit in the right place.

AnswerIt works the same way your current cable works. It's basically a passthrough so if you have a clock app that remains running while connected to lightning cable, it will work the same way on the dock.

AnswerNo, the dock is simply a "middle-man" between the Lightning cord and the charging slot on the bottom of your device. You must plug the dock into the wall using your Lightnig cable, and then dock your iPhone into the dock. The dock itself does not store any actual battery power.

Best Answer:
I bought an iPhone 6S and tech21 case recommended by Apple from the Apple store and the Lightning dock does not work with the case as it can't enter al the way into the charging port. So have to take the case off to use this - so will not be using unfortunately.
