Iphone 5s

[quasi]

anyone using a iPhone 5s for their tunes? can only get it into the aux mode and that is only allowing me volume controls. can't change playlists or anything.
bike is 2012 RT-S. tks,

With a 5s I believe you have the Lightning cable instead of the 30 pin connector. Not exactly sure how you hooked it up to your Spyder but if you used just the auxiliary plug into the headphone jack that's all the control you'll get.

You can get a lightning to 30 pin atapter for chump change. FWIW, I carry my 5S in an Otter Box case that the straight adapter won't accommodate so mine has a short, 6" cable. Picked up at Best Buy.

what is an otterbox?

I was having the same problem even with the lightening cable. It started when Apple came out with IOS 9.0. I've found that if you reboot your phone (turn it off and then back on) the "Ipod" mode will come up.

it's an "armored" robust case for the phone

otterbox defender or a lifeproof case - don't leave home without it on your smartphone

Could you attach a pic of that adapter. I just got a IPhone 6 with an otter box case and need to get an adapter that will fit so I don't have to take the phone out of the case each time I plug it in the trunk. I send me an exact product make and model. I bought one like the one listed just below your response and it obviously won't reach with the otter box case attached.

Won't fit

I bought this adapter and it won't connect to my phone with the otter box case still on the phone. Hoping that there is another option as I don't want to take the phone out of the case each time I plug it in the trunk.

Sorry maybe there is little bit between 5s compared to my 5 ¿ I dont know them all just what I have & works for me.

Make sure you get a REAL Apple adapter plug!
Most of the after market adapters will charge only. They won't do "data" and thus won't work on the Spyder.
