A bad audio can turn a great video into a terrible video. Your viewers may ignore your bad video and bad lighting but will NOT forgive your bad audio. Built-in mics of phones/tablets are substandard, sound tinny and are not powerful enough to record audio from a distance which is why people record audio on a separate device using a Mic on their person and sync it later. If you want great audio, you need an external mic.
If you want to shoot a cool videos with GREAT audio on a SINGLE device without having to download, sync up audio/video later in an editor, use this combo and it works with just one phone or tablet (no need to use 2 devices to record audio/video separately and sync audio/video in post production editing):

(20 feet but NO loss of audio quality)
If the breakout box does not fit due to your bulky phone case, plug the extension cable into the phone and then plug the breakout box in between the extension cable and the mic.
The items I mentioned above are TRRS that connect with iOS devices well. If you want to connect the SmartLav+ to a camera or an audio recorder or other O/S devices that have TRS jack, you need this adapter (I have this one too):

Just make sure you get the latest SmartLav+ (plus) and NOT the older version that has some noise (smartLav):

If you are not clear with TRRS-vs-TRS-vs-TS, here is an article:

For video recording, use FiLMiC Pro app with FiLMiC Remote app - the BEST. For audio recording, use Rode Rec or MetaRecorder apps - both are cool.
The above combo works great for me!
Here is my review of this item and the combination I use for PERFECT recording using a SINGLE device:

One other handy use: If you have an older car and use a cassette adapter to play your phone through the car stereo, you can use this to route the audio output through the car stereo (plug your cassette adapter or aux input cable into the headphone jack) and plug an external mic into the mic input. It's not exactly Bluetooth perfection but it will let you avoid mic feedback. I plug an old pair of iPhone earbuds into the mic jack and run the cord under the shoulder strap of the seat belt so the iPhone mic picks up my voice.
One caveat: As another reviewer pointed out, the input jack on the SC6 sits flush with the phone input, so you'll need an extension input if you keep your phone in a case. (I use this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SZPT64I?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00)
This one came with my Mophie case and also works well: http://www.amazon.com/Mophie-Headset-Adapter-Helium-Iphone/dp/B00G3KG8IO/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1441661441&sr=1-1&keywords=mophie+extender
It will work with Lav+ Mics and other rode products. It will not work with any product that is not TRRS. It also conducts no power.
It will also not work with full functionality if you used 2 iphone headsets or any other kind of cheap/not fittingly programmed headset. I tried using it with my apple headset mics, and it would only play one mic... Specifically the last one plugged in or the the mic emitting the strongest signal.
It can work with other mics that are not RODE, it does work with my VOJO+ hotline, which is an adapter designed to use your cellphone in your car via auxiliary. Both mics work, so I'm guessing if you use professional grade TRRS mics and or mics designed for TRRS input with an auxiliary output.
Initially, I was not happy with the product because I thought you could only use RODE specific products with it. But that's actually not the case... It also records to your iphone voice recorder app and RODE REC app. It will also work and record with specific video apps that allow you to record video with an external mic which most cellphones video recording functions do not allow or have access to in settings.
