Sure. It's a super fast and easy way to transfer videos, music and images. You can also back up your phone using the cable. I used to use my for USB tethering to get around hotspot charges. It's also handy for loading projects for development.
Thanks. Tho does surprise me to hear that backups to the computer is still a thing people do on any sort of scale. Dev projects tho, that def makes sense
My partner actually just backed up their iPhone today using a cable. They don't want to pay the extra storage fees for iCloud, and they like having control of their own data.
