Hi,
Its possible, I use a adaptor which lets me plug-in a guitar and headphones.
However, TalkingTuner doesn't use the external input, it always uses the
built-in mic. So an update to TalkingTuner would be required.
Cheers,
Brett.

I don't think the 6 Plus does this at least not in portrait mode. This is,
however, the same on iPads. If you don't like the split screen just use it

You create the group in the CONTACTS or Address Book for your computer.
Then when you execute a sync via iTunes you instruct iTunes to sync
