Now that I have upgraded the OS to iOS6 it no longer works so it now useless. Maybe the developers can sort this out as others have found it no longer works. ### 1/5 — Do not buy this piece of junk *2012-12-26, version 1.4.8* I bought one of the first 32 gb versions and used it until the ios6 upgrade. They are a terrible company. Have sent them six emails and they have not responded a single time yet for my plea of an upgrade or replacement to the new HD version. This company should be removed from the App Store immediately. Woodstocktennisnut is not a satisfied customer! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-12-17, version 1.4.8* Expensive! If it did what it said then it would be great but you are limited with what you can transfer and since Ios6 it jut doesnt work, waited a hour for 2 pics to upload in the end i just emailed them :-( ### 1/5 — Do not buy their product and NOT recommended *2012-12-13, version 1.4.8* My iFlashDrive is useless without their app and their app is not working on iOS 6. DO NOT buy their product! Rating is 0! ### 1/5 — Does not work with my ipad2 *2012-11-28, version 1.4.8* This app works with my iphone 4 but is not working with Ipad 2. Needs an update!!!!! Please!!!! ### 1/5 — Potential but flawed - so don't buy *2012-11-20, version 1.4.8* This product worked well before iOS6 and now not at all. The company doesn't respond to any customer queries - so it's totally a waste of money and consumers are better off looking elsewhere - sorry - only got yourselves to blame! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-11-15, version 1.4.8* Truly rubbish. Great idea but software doesn't work ### 1/5 — Doesn't work with iOS 6 *2012-11-12, version 1.4.8* FIX IT !!! It is a ripoff ### 1/5 — Unethical Developer. Do Not Buy! *2012-11-04, version 1.4.8* I've got the original i-FlashDrive which was working fine until PhotoFast came out with the new version, the i-FlashDrive HD. Now they totally stop support and development for the old product which does not work in iOS 6. They don't respond to support emails. The only remedy they suggest was for me to buy the new version. How convenient? Stopping support for the old product to force you to buy the new product instead. I totally expect them to stop supporting this HD version when the next version comes out. I bought the original i-FlashDrive less than a year ago and it's still under warranty, but it's junk now and they are not providing any support or answering my emails. I want a refund! How Apple allow such an unethical developer to conduct business here is beyond me. ### 1/5 — just expensive garbage *2012-11-03, version 1.4.8* why do you divide that hd, or not hd ### 1/5 — Does not work with iOS6!!!! *2012-11-02, version 1.4.8* Expensive drive remains worthless while waiting for upgrade!!!!!! Poor customer support ### 1/5 — Doesn *2012-10-20, version 1.4.8* The app is useless unless it can work with iPad - which it doesn't and the USB stick doesn't show up on the mac - AVOID like the plague unless you want to waste time and money ### 1/5 — Need update now!!!!! *2012-10-14, version 1.4.8* When are you gonna update for ios 6. Hey! if I cannot use it with my idevice what i suppose to do with it?!?!?!!!!!! Just a normal flash drive!!!! Are you kidding me?!?!!!! It's too expensive to be just a normal flash drive!!! Are you gonna give me the HD one instead?!?!!! Do some thing!!! ### 1/5 — I-FlashDrive *2012-10-14, version 1.4.8* This dongle is a fantastic idea but the software lets it down. They could sell millions of these if it worked as it should once plugged into the iPad or iPhone. I can use it OK but the software is clunky.... ### 1/5 — Not happy! *2012-10-09, version 1.4.8* Same problems as mentioned. Not happy at all! ### 1/5 — I flash my a__ *2012-10-08, version 1.4.8* It is a piece of cr__, don't buy till we say they fixed it!,,! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2022-08-30, version 1.6.5* Not working at all ### 1/5 — This does absolutely nothing *2020-01-04, version 1.6.5* What a con. The ipad finds it but nothing happens. No uploads, no downloads, nothing visible. What rubbish. ### 1/5 — Forget this *2018-06-17, version 1.6.5* Would not any pics. Now I can’t delete it. Does anyone check these out first? ### 1/5 — Buggy and expensive *2014-09-21, version 1.5.1* Serious problems with key. Many bugs, new app does not recognize key when plugged in. Truly expensive for such unfinished prorotype. A real disappointment. ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2013-01-26, version 1.4.8* Crashes so much it is unusable. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work with iOS 6 *2013-01-10, version 1.4.8* External storage i-FlashDrive doesn't work on iOS 6. So expensive product is priceless now. Zero support. ### 1/5 — Do not buy....... *2013-01-09, version 1.4.8* Is no stars possible ? This just does not work with ios6 ### 1/5 — Do Not Buy This!!!! *2013-01-09, version 1.4.8* I agree with the other customers, this flash drive is a rip off and the company won't respond to any of my requests for help. I wasted my hard earned money on this product. It does not represent the fine quality of an Apple product. Please pull it off before other customers are ripped off too. ### 1/5 — Should be Removed from App Store *2013-01-01, version 1.4.8* Apple: Please remove this app and its successor from the App Store! This company is a rip-off, forcing customers to abandon an expensive dongle for a newer one. This company is nothing more than a scam. I purchased the i-drive and downloaded the app for use with iOS 5. The app performed well. Once I upgraded to iOS 6, the app no longer worked. The fact that iOS 6 has been out for nearly 2 months and this app has not been upgraded is a disgrace. Apple, please remove this app from the App Store until this company and successfully upgrade it to be compatible with iOS 6. DO NOT buy this app or its USB drive if you are using iOS 6. This company does NOt support its software with timely OS upgrades. ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY *2012-12-27, version 1.4.8* I bought this device and came to find out that it will not work on my iPad or on iOS 6 or higher. What a waste of money.... ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still works with iOS 6 *2013-01-16, version 1.4.8* I use this on an iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and 3. Works great on iOS 6 and is a good product. ### 5/5 — Impressed *2013-01-11, version 1.4.8* I just purchased the Hyperdrive iFlashDrive 8 GB and am very impressed. I have an iPad 2 on iOS 6 and was worried when I read the reviews. As I travel a lot I wanted flexibility to leave the MacBook Pro at home but was worried about iCloud and Dropbox access from time to time. I have loaded Word and Pages docs, Excel and numbers, PowerPoint and Keynote as well as PDFs. All work and the file manager is great. I am not super hi-tech and just wanted the comfort of having more file access on the go. This works well for me. I hope others with issues find a fix. ### 5/5 — Perfect solution for my needs *2012-12-01, version 1.4.8* This product works perfectly with my first generation iPad. I needed a way to get some large PDF files onto the iPad which were too large to email to myself and which would not transfer via iTunes, yet the process is extremely simple using I-FlashDrive and the accompanying software application. I now have all the PDF files on my iPad and can access them using Adobe Reader. Transfer speeds are very slow but it doesn't matter to me as there is no other way to get the files I need onto my device. Top marks to Sanho for producing this. ### 5/5 — Works great *2012-10-11, version 1.4.8* I downloaded the app the other day and it works great! No problems or issues at all. Its easy to use and am now transferring files from my iPhone 4S to my iPad, its as simple as that. Once my friends download the app it definitely will be the easiest way to share anything i want!! ### 5/5 — Great!!! *2012-10-07, version 1.4.8* I got it to work. It's a great product. What else can I say. ### 5/5 — Love the concept but needs work *2012-09-20, version 1.4.8* Review update. New update to iWork means I can now transfer back to the memory stick. Thank you so much this is now exactly what I need. It's now a 5 star product when used with the memory stick. Great for getting files onto your iPad, easy to get them into pages or keynote but getting them back onto the memory stick is complicated. You have to save to drop box and then move to local memory and then onto the external memory. No good for me, I am not allowed by my work to move confidential doc through drop box or Icloud. So buying the memory stick thinking that it was an answer to my problem was a total waste of money. ### 5/5 — Freeeeee *2012-09-01, version 1.4.8* I got this app for freeeeeeee! ### 5/5 — Very useful for me *2012-04-02, version 1.4.6* There are many uses for the i-Flashdrive, from quickly sharing pictures or files during a meeting to offloading media onto it when on holiday to recover so space on your iDevice. Saved me a lot of time when on the move ### 5/5 — Worth *2011-07-06, version 1.2* Its worth it if you don't have itunes ### 5/5 — Great *2011-06-25, version 1.1* This app I great for when I can't find my USB stick. And it's free! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
