Does it require the user to download an App to use this device to backup photos and videos on an iPhone?
An App is not required. We offer the iXflash App because it offers many additional useful features and is easier to use. But, if you have a USB-C 15, 16, 17 or later iPhone, you can access the photos and videos through the native Apple Files App.
Does it offer an App for Android devices, and if so, is it necessary?
The iXflash Q is one of the few photo/video backup devices with an Android app (phones & tablets). The app isn’t required, but using the PIODATA app from Google Play unlocks more features and improves performance.
Does the iXflash Q support charging while backing up?
The Q supports pass-through charging when connected to a wall charger or power bank while backing up or performing other functions. For best results, use a USB-C to C cable with a PD Type C charger; USB-A to C cables or adapters are not supported.
Can I directly record video in ProRes onto the MicroSD card in the iXflash Q?
Yes. If iXflash app is not installed, record in ProRes from the Apple Camera. If the iXflash app is installed, go to the iXflash App’s settings & enable access to the Apple Files app. Requires a USB-C Pro/Pro Max iPhone & a V90 or higher microSD card
What if my phone doesn’t charge when it’s connected to a wall plug while backing up?
The Q has two USB-C ports (1 male, 1 female) for flexible use. Due to its patented design, pass-through charging requires a USB-C to C cable and a PD USB-C charger, especially for Samsung S & A series; USB-A to C cables or adapters are not supported.
