Answer
Yes works perfectly even with full functions using the remote of the philips dock. - but if you have a case the causes even the smallest gap on the bottom of the the iphone between it and the adapter then the lightning connector will not make contact fully.
A better bet is the adapter with a 0.2 m cable although it will not look nice but you will have not need to remove your case every time. it is pricey though.- Answered by Joseph Paul J from Paranaque

Does the display show the time when the radio is playing?
I am looking for an Alarm Clock Radio that displays the radio station and time at the same time. I want to use it with my 3Gs. My current clock that docks my 3Gs only displays the station id when the radio is on and the time when the radio is off. The same is true when using my iPhone for the music source. I do not want to shut off my music to see the time.
- Asked by Kerry V from Homestead

Answer
Yes, when the radio is on the station id replaces the date (month & day), but the time and day of the week are still displayed.
