SD card reader for Iphone

Anyone know of a reliable SD card reader for iOS that does not require you to import your photos? I lost mine that allowed you to view straight from the card without having to import thousands of pictures.

Thank you in advance.

I used to sell them but iOS was continually trying to shut them down with ever patch. Boneview has one with a short 4-5" cord. That one works most of the time.

Thank you all. Just gave Amazon a little more money and ordered the Boneview. Have a good weekend.

I downloaded the free Ap for my phone (which took about 10 seconds) and the Tracker worked perfectly first time trying it. Works well since also. Good luck with yours!

Received my tracker monday,had already downloaded the app.
Put a sd card in and it worked just like it was supposed too first time. I like the little case it comes in also.

If you run into problems with certain cards make sure you check the formatting of the specific card. You should also wait a few weeks after Apple releases updated iOS so that the app can be updated. Apple does not approve of using these readers and they are always trying to shut them down.

Any idea why Apple does not approve of using these readers? Do they sell one?

They sell card reader that loads everything in to your photos. It really sucks especially if you have 100's or 1000's of photos to go through. Many of the readers use unauthorized lightning parts as well.

Just for another reference, I got this off Amazon, only $10.xx, works perfectly.
Displays all photos on the SD card, lets me click/select which one(s) I want loaded into my iPhone, done.
( also includes an adapter card to accept the tiny micro cards )
