Apple markets its adapter as a way to transfer pictures.
One less-touted feature of such adapters involves the use of peripherals such as USB MIDI keyboards and microphones.
It’s also a good option if you want a wired connection for peripherals rather than a wireless one.
Compatibility can be hit or miss at times.
Look for USB drives or other products that are certified as Made for iPhone (MFi).
These devices work seamlessly with iOS.
These devices also come with built-in memory for storing media.

These include AVI and MKV files.
