Gregger Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Just picked one up. Installing on Sunday. Kind of unclear what exactly I need to get my 5s to work in app mode. Do I really need the HDMI cable, plus the lightning to digital AV adapter plus another lightning cable? That seems a bit excessive. Sorry if this has been clarified elsewhere.

tekki Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I lightning cable, hdmi cable and lighting to digital av adapter is what you need. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
indiix2 Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I've run my HDMI cable, but i hate app mode.. i just use the lightning cable for iPod mode and blutooth for calls/siri and such. I'm personally waiting for CarPlay. AppMode kinda sucks IMHO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gregger Posted April 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 CarPlay is what spurred my purchase, and honestly, it's obnoxious that I need $100 in cables for things to be compatible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drenyce311 Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 you need an original apple charger $19.99 (or free when you purchase the phone). Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter $49.00, and a $3.00 HDMI cable from amazon. Its either $72 purchasing all these items or $52 for just the cable and adapter. But either way its good to have. APP RADIO sucks. Dont see my self using it either Quote Link to post Share on other sites
