This kind of dongle would be for Lightning accessories that plug into the phone, like headphones or speakers, where you can’t just swap out a cable because it’s built in. No more lightning port means those electronics would be useless for the new phones.
The only cable I think I would need that I don’t already have would be a C-to-A cable to plug the phone into the car. My car doesn’t support wireless CarPlay.
What lightning dongles do people use that they would need that adapter for?
