—If you have an older iPad or iPhone using the 3.5mm plug, You can use the TRRS 3.5mm-3.5mm audio output cable included in the package to connect and use, without the Apple dongle.

—For iPhone 7 and above iOS smartphones series use the ORIGINAL Lightning-3.5mm TRRS cable adapter from your iPhone box. (The product package not include this adapter cable)

4. If the device does not have a 3.5mm jack, please use the corresponding adapter cable (the product only contains the adapter cable with a 3.5mm jack)

(Note: If there is an obvious noise, it may be that the device is incompatible or the cable is inserted incorrectly. )

Avoid Common Problems for Higher Recording Quality:

— Use Manual Audio Recording Mode

• When using a camera, please change the auto gain to manual in the recording option, then fine-tune the level so that the sound is around 12 db.
• Also, get your mic as close as you can to the speaking subject – within 4 feet is ideal.
• When the subject is silent, it will not amplify background noise and give a good level without distortion.

— Turn Camera WiFi Off & Use Manual Focus

• Use manual focusing to avoid the noisy sound caused by automatic focusing.
• All microphones, including the VideoMicro, can experience interference from strong external RF fields, such as very close WiFi transmitters. Turning off the WiFi function of your camera whilst filming is always good practice, and can help prevent any potential interference.
