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.

Can the volume be changed through the iPhone and headphone controls during music playback and calls?
I will probably connect it to a speaker with very limited volume control so it would be great if this allows volume changes from the phone itself.

AnswerIt might be possible, but I would definitely not recommend it. That's waaaaaaay too much weight on the connector.

Answer
Most likely not. I've found that many cases, even ones that are pretty thin, that don't allow full access to the bottom of the phone, have trouble charging with this dock.

Does the iPhone dock have a sticky base/something to keep it from lifting off the table when you pick up the phone from the dock?
Does the dock have a sticky base to keep it from lifting from the table surface when you pick up the phone with one hand, or do you have to use two hands, i.e. one to hold the dock down and another to pick up the phone when docked?
Best Answer:It has a grippy base to keep it from sliding, but it does not stick in such a way to keep it from lifting. To take the iPhone off of the dock you need to put pressure down on the dock, whether this be with two hands, or with one hand by putting your hand down on the dock while lifting the iPhone with your thumb and index finger. It's not the most comfortable to do it with one hand, but it's certainly possible.

Will this work with a life proof case?
- Asked by Allie M from Charlotte
- 09 22, 15
- Flag as inappropriate (Will this work with a life proof case?)
AnswerNo, the cover that flips out on the LifeProof case blocks the iPhone from being able to to dock on it, and the cut out for the Lightning port is too deep for the dock's Lightning connector to fit.
