It's just annoying to have to carry a USB Dongle for something that should be built in.

- freetime2 1y agoCould you use something like this direct USB-C to 3.5mm Audio Cable, eliminating the need for a dongle? https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MDV84AM/A/usb-c-to-35-mm-audio-cable-12-m https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MDV84AM/A/usb-c-to-35-mm-...
- 999900000999 1y agoOhh cool. I didn't know about that, I'll think about it
- thehyperflux 1y agoI had no idea this existed and it's just what I needed to renovate an old pair of headphones for modern devices. Thanks!
- raw_anon_1111 1y agoI would agree with you when you had to have bespoke Apple dongles to work with lighting. But with USB-C and the iPhones support for all of the standard USB C protocols, I don’t really have any sympathy for you. The number of people who care about an analog headphone jack in 2025 is minimal. The other argument use to be that you can’t charge and use the USB C jack at the same time. Bud you can use a MagSafe cord for charging.
