Hello
Somebody mentioned this on the list yesterday, so I took the plunge and invested in one and received it today.
I transferred an album on the stick and after downloading the Istick app on the Iphone, inserted the stick into the phone, as it has a lightning adapter for the Iphone 5 and other models. There is a button on the stick which slides two ways, one way releases the lighting adapter necessary for the Iphone, the other way releases the USB adapter for the computer. Once inserted into the Iphone, I could choose between what was on the stick or iphone and located what was on the stick with ease. I then copied an album from the stick onto the Iphone.
To do this, I looked for an album, double tapped on it and looked for an edit button. After double tapping, I then selected all and then found 3 unlabeled buttons. The first is an erase button, the second copies files and the third allows you the ability to move things from the stick directly to the Iphone.
You have the ability to say where you would like your files to be stored on the phone, in pre-defined folders within the Istick app like movies or music etc. When you find the three buttons voiceover just says "button" but I double tapped on each to see what they did.
When I copied my album to the phone, I removed the Istick and closed the app down. I opened it again and went into the Iphone tab within the app. There, you'll find things like backup, documents, photos, movies and music. I opened music and hey presto, there was my album.
You can also backup contacts from your phone which I did easily and you can restore these as well from the Istick directly to your phone.
Yes, the stick is expensive but I'm glad I purchased this and can see it being extremely useful. 

I hope this helps somebody out.

Best wishes, Julie.
