Died after 6 months

My second and last iHome product died within 6 months. Expensive cheap junk. The snooze button is tiny and hard to find by touch. The Aux input is not grounded so cannot be used with the Revain Echo Dot for example as it makes a lot of noise. At some point when he died, he lost contact with my phone, then the display on the device started flickering and soon after went out completely. Never buy iHome, they charge extra for defective products.

Pros
  • finally bought
Cons
  • threadbare

Good and bad good for portable audio and video

Bloody mad that Apple is relentlessly changing charging ports, making all my existing peripherals obsolete and forcing me to replace items that aren't as obsolete and are still working. Big. However, iHome makes a pretty snazzy watch/radio/phone charger. The previous version worked great and the iDL95 has some interesting improvements (separate alarms for weekdays and weekends, alternative USB input). It also has some disadvantages. I use the AUX output to send music to a full sound system…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Some difficulties

The currently best clock radio.

We love this clock radio. One of the best features is the ability to completely turn off the display. We had another radio that gave us up and it had that feature. We saw this in a motel room and got the info from the bottom of the radio to order it. It was a little confusing how to get ihome playlist on ipod but after finding the guide I was able to find a few songs to add to playlist that wouldn't scare us to death if they did showed up in the morning. Works perfectly. In fact, the display…

Pros
  • Good for many
Cons
  • Some bugs

so good! I just returned another Ihome clock radio.

So far so good! I just returned another Ihome clock radio and decided to give it a try. Again, I really like it so far. The night dimmer is perfect - you can choose from many dimming levels - no need to worry about extra light in the bedroom - just the thing for telling the time! The charging speed of my iPhone 6 is great - one complaint is that you have to remove the cover to put your phone in. Why can't they just take that into account when inventing a new one! Everyone has a phone case! The…

Pros
  • Amazing
Cons
  • Can I add something

Great product, nice features, good fit (with case!). No problem

It helped me a lot. I see others have had issues but this was a great product. It fits my iPhone 5S and my Otterbox Commuter case. Cracked? I cut off the plugs for the charging jack and earphones from the bottom of the case (yes, that may partially defeat the purpose of this piece of case, but they still don't seal well, often stick out, and don't protect anything if you drop them in a puddle and they are not protected from dust). With this modification, the iPhone sits securely. When I first…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

I can no longer charge my iPhone with a charger using Lightning connection above. The rear USB ports don't charge either. The rear USB ports will not charge my iPhone 6, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, iPad 2 or other Micro B electronics such as Bluetooth headphones or Galaxy S5. (I suspect they're broken, but they stopped working less than 2 weeks after receiving them, and I didn't even use the rear ports until the lightning port on top just stopped working). Aside from charging issues, the device works…

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

iHome does not endorse its products - buyers should beware

UPDATE 11/16: I am generally happy with the product (read my previous comments which I have attached). But iHome hasn't updated its firmware or smart app (at least iOS) for over three years. With the latest iOS updates, the basic functions of the clock radio no longer work with the smart app activated. You can no longer adjust alarm settings via iDevice (one of the main advantages). I recommend anyone thinking of buying ANY smart app enabled product to first look for comments in the relevant…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not a vending machine
