Major updates require testing before official release to avoid bugs. That’s why Apple has a beta program for developers and the general public. A few days ago, iOS 16.5 was released after weeks of testing. However, not all errors are detected in time. It seems iOS 16.5 Disables Lightning to USB 3 Adapter giving power error when connecting. Will we have iOS 16.5.1 just around the corner?
Something’s wrong with iOS 16.5…lightning to USB 3 adapter not working
Apple offers a series of accessories that, for many, are essential. One of them is the Lightning to USB 3 connector adapter for cameras. This adapter has a Lightning input through which it is powered and two outputs: a USB 3 to connect peripherals and a Lightning to charge devices if desired. In USB 3 you can not only connect cameras but also hubs, Ethernet adapters, audio/MIDI interfaces or card readers.

However, It seems that iOS 16.5 has a bug and made the Lightning to USB 3 adapter unusable. The main error that is returned is that “the adapter requires too much power to operate”. The result of this error? The impossibility of normal use of the adapter, which, when connected to a device with another operating system, works perfectly.
Many users complained that adapter not working after update and the customer service itself does not know how to give an answer. See how the adapter works again after connecting it to a device with previous versions, it makes sense to think that the problem is in iOS 16.5. For that alone, Apple might consider releasing iOS 16.5.1 in the next few days to undo the bug.
