I bought this adapter despite some very negative reviews and really I do not regret. indeed, simply connect it to the iPad and the TV HDMI cord so that it is recognized I admit that the iPad should stay flat and not move otherwise he loses the connection, but it's not a problem in itself, it is placed and it rolls. comment said that the claw (ipad side) was hard to remove: you must press on both sides of the claw to release it. it comes off easily. I can again watch movies via my tablet for 20 euro while Darty told me to buy a DVD player because mine had no update available. Conclusion: good buy, I recommend
