Not in the last couple of years, but 11 years ago when it was introduced, probably.

Airplay was already around when the 30 pin connecter was still there, and they were also popular back then. I remember using a 30 pin connecter speaker with a 30 pin to lightning connecter also because it could charge my phone at the same time.

Realistically, the market for such accessories is likely fairly limited, but that in the end also results in a higher price (no scale in the market after all).

People who have accessories with a lightning adapter probably. Speakers, docks, etc.

Alternatively the adapter might be a cheaper option for third party cables that aren’t usb-c or usb-a on the other side of the cable.

There were talks about Besiktas earlier, but I guess he now has the time to figure it out.

Will miss him at Ajax. We need some proper scouting this summer with all the likely players to leave.
