Lightning connector doesn't connect.

Cannot get it to work! The USB connector is fine; the iPhone lightning connector is not recognised by the sandisk app. My iPhone is an iPhone 8plus. Tried also on iPhone 11 Pro Max - no joy there either. Requesting refund.

May as well be called iWaste.

My iXpand does nothing to free up space on my iPhone. I can put the same files on my iCloud drive which both require me to have an internet connection to access my files unless I store them in my offline files which doesn't give me any more space on my phone. What a waste of money. What a lie. Doesn't allow to select all files, I have to select each file manually one at a time. What a waste of my time.

Junk. Failed again and again. It's New!

Repeatedly copied only 5 of 93 photos, then said to "try again later." Repeatedly repeated. NG. Then tried all options. "Try again later." Belatedly, I checked customer reviews and found it's HORRIBLE RATINGS!! What happened to W.D. and sandisk?

Great way to make space on your iPhone.

The SanDisk IxPand 128gb Flash Drive is a perfect way to safely store your iPhone photos. Set up is simple and easy to use.

Great brand name - trustable storage device

These expandable storage devices are great for pictures. My iPhone never seems to have enough storage and it's nice to download photos to these flash drives for easy saving. I know this device will last and as long as I can find it my pictures will be safe on it.

Great and compact

This was awesome because I'm a student and it's great for on the go! I recommend for photo transfers as well as for work things I use for engineering and managing my club at my college. It's important to make sure I have one with me.

Good reviews, not so good UI

Still not clear how this works but out of the box and with the app installed it's not working. Using it to free up storage for iPad, but it doesn't work once I select all photos to copy over (öperation failed, try again later"). I'm also not sure why I'm copying photos - will that free up space? I want to move them, don't I? Maybe too many photos? but not exceeding the size of the drive, so...?

Not ready for prime time.

I like Sandisk products and use them frequently but this just misses the mark Not capable of transferring large amounts of photos at once. The app crashes frequently and isn't stable enough to handle more than a few hundred pics and at a time . Very easy to use, but doesn't work as well as described or as it should

Excellent flash drive for iPhone!

I got this SanDisk iXpand? Flash Drive Go 64GB and I love it! It works great with my iPhone 11. Setting it up is very easy, I just plugged it into my iPhone and got a prompt to download the accompanying app via the Apple App Store. The app is very easy to navigate and it was simple to copy or transfer photos and files back and forth from the flash drive to and from my phone. I love that this is a very small size. Its perfect to attach to a key ring or just to keep in my pocket. It's great for home use and travel. It has two ends with a lightning and USB 3.0 connectors. Overall, this is a great little gadget and I highly recommend it! It can be used to back up your phone as well. It has various options in the app that make it all very simple to figure out. I love this little flash drive!

It's good

This SanDisk iXpand? Flash Drive Go is nice, and helpful if you have too many photos and videos on your phone that you'd like to move off. However, there are downsides like having to use the iXpand iOS app which can be glitchy (and the last thing you want when your precious photos are at stake is a glitchy app!) however once you get it working it's pretty smooth. I would recommend it if you need to store things from your phone elsewhere.

A convenient USB storage for iPhone and Mac/PC

This is basically a double-ended storage that has USB on one side and a Lightning connector on the other. In this way, it can connect to a Mac/PC or an iPhone. Though presumably not at the same time. It has a user-friendly app for iPhone that works great. The form factor is very petite and is made to go on a key ring if desired. One thing to note: the USB connector is the classic kind. It would need an adapter to work on the newest Macs.

Iphone Back Up

SanDisk iXpand? Flash Drive Go 64GB is great for transferring my Iphone photos. it changes the name of the files but that didn't bother me. The drive is sturdy and easy to use. It needs additional software so it isn't as simple as it seems.

Value for money and unique.

The best part is can be used with both iphone and mac or a windows. As it has the lightning port capability, really useful to take backup of all important images and files from iPhone. later you can transfer them on your laptop using the standard usb port. This makes it a breeze and was the selling point over other standard flash drives.

Like an extra battery!!

This thing is so great!!! It is so nice to have something at your fingertips to free up extra storage and be able to use your phone again! I take so many pictures of my dogs because, well they're adorable and I am constantly getting the storage full alert. Especially when I need it the most and this thing makes like better!!

Opens Up Memory Space

I usually am carrying over one thousand photos on my phone. I never thought about the memory space I was using until I saw this gadget. This Sandisk Expand Flash Drive Go holds 64 GB of data including photos, videos and contacts. Videos especially eat up a lot of space on your phone. Using this product, I can take all the photos and videos that I want and then easily and quickly back them up on the iXpand Drive app which you can download from the App store. It is very user friendly and works with a long list of models of iPhones and iPads. Just plug the flash drive into your phone and follow the prompts. You can have your photos and videos automatically upload to the iXpand drive or you can manually choose which you want to save on the drive. You can use the USB connector that is on the flip end of the flash drive to move the photos onto a computer if you wish. You can also password protect your files. The choice is yours whether you want to keep the photos on your phone once you back them up, or delete them from your phone to free up space. I did not have any problems using it, but it does come with support information if you do need help. This flash drive is great. I am very pleased with this product.

Great storage features

I've never used a usb storage device for my iPhone, but I've consistently ran out of space and have needed to pay for additional storage for years now. I do take a lot of photos. This sandisk flash drive is awesome! It was the first time I've used anything like it, and I'm glad it's compatible with my phone and iPad. It's incredibly easy to "install" and to use in my phone. It was easy to find the iXpand drive in the App Store too. I was pleasantly surprised to see how easy the app was to use with the flash drive. What's really nice is that my whole family can share this drive, or I can use it to share and transfer large videos to family members' devices, which previously required I transfer the video to my Mac or laptop and then back onto their individual device. The drive is pretty small and I put it on a lanyard. I wouldn't personably put it on a keychain, but you can. This is an incredibly useful device and so easy to use. 64gb is great storage capacity. I'll definitely be taking this on nature hikes with me and putting my daily photos on the flash drive to save phone storage.

Good for extra memory

This flash drive is easy to use and has allowed me to be able to save files and photos so that I can have more free space on my phone. The software that you need to download it easy to find and download from the app store. It is as simple as plugging the flash drive into your phone and using the software to move the data over to the drive. The drive itself seems to be made well. My only concern is the flip slide top it has that covers the connector. I feel like it it is being stored on keys or a lanyard that is moved around alot, it may break off easily but overall it is a good device.

Perfect for backing up your IPhone

I have been looking for something that would backup my IPhone and allow me to transfer to a computer or save my photos in the event my phone crashes. The Sandisk iXpand Flash Drive Go is the perfect solution. It easily plugs into your IPhone and creates a backup. It was a fast and easy way to transfer data via the app. I highly recommend.

Simple Solution

This clever little device is a lifesaver! I needed to free space on my phone so I could take pictures and video without worrying about storage or having to delete some images. The interface is clean and intuitive, and you don't have to carry extra cables with you.

Works Great on IPad but

While I was able to put my photos on the flash, when I went to pull them up on my laptop (Windows 10) I was not able to see them. The flash puts the photos into a format that if I want to view the files, I have to pay to have a special app. I am VERY unhappy with this and spent a lot of money for this piece of trash. Warning - unless you only want to view on just your Ipad etc do not purchase.
