USB OTG File Manager for Nexus
With a FAT32 filesystem, you can copy files to any USB mass storage device and manage your files on it (edit filenames, add directories, delete files) too.You can also manage your files in the internal memory of your device.
This application has been designed for Nexus products which have an USB "OnTheGo" port, as the Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10, and the brand new Nexus 6 and Nexus 9. But it could work on any device with an USB OTG port Under Android 4.0 or later, including the last Android 5.0 Lollipop.
Root privileges are NOT necessary!
For now, FAT32 filesystem is supported for data read and write, and NTFS filesystem is only supported for data read. You can use USB sticks or SD card readers with any compatible USB OTG cable.

* NEW FEATURE ***
You can now play playlists (m3u and m3u8 files) and multiple audio files (mp3, aac, m4a, flac, ogg and wav files) at the same time from your USB OTG mass storage device. For that, you need to install my new app Simple Music Player which exists in two versions:
- Free version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kyuudroid.simplemusicplayer.free
- Paid version to support my developments and get some additional features in the future:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kyuudroid.simplemusicplayer
Once Simple Music Player is installed, select the files you want to play on your USB device, push the open button and select the Simple Music Player app.This is a brand new feature, so if you have any issue, don't hesitate to send me an e-mail! Your feedback would be appreciated too.

* FEATURES ***
USB OTG File Manager for Nexus allows you to open your files directly from your USB device! You just need to have an app that can handle it. For audio and video, I advise you to use VLC.The new Network Access authorization is only here for local use to be able to open the files. The app NEVER send or receive data to/from Internet.
USB OTG File Manager for Nexus supports devices with multiple logical units (like a GPS with an internal memory and an additional SD card) and allows you to choose which logical unit you want to read.
USB OTG File Manager for Nexus now includes an "Advanced Mode" which allows you to access to all the files of your device. You can now create files and directories outside of the official Android public directories. This is for advanced users only!

It's slooooow! I love it cuz it works. But boy, is it sloooow?!
Awesome app use it every day.
Hi I am unable to open picture which Is on card. It saying 'No app Present'.
Tried copy multiple files but the count was different at destination as compared to source. Cannot trust anymore on the app. Would expect the refund. I am using Nexus 5
Piece of crap said it was compatible until I installed it and paid for it then it said it was incompatible. Don't waste your money on this
Tried a dozen usb otg file managers. None of them worked. Decided to try this one and it works perfectly.
I will not play any video files outside of the .mp4 I wish I was more on the line of a more powerful vlc player. Sad. Don't buy. There's a lot of other free versions out here.
There is no comfortable format to view items such as photos that I want to select to transfer. It is extremely annoying to go through hundreds of photos that way. I expected a much better format.
Omg took me forever to find usb otg app that works
After copy to usb, the files become corrupted and unreable.
This app is very convenient for managing photo backup from my Nexus 5x while away from data connections.
Instead of 150 , 200 was deducted. Doesn't look safe..dnt provide card details in here.
This is one of the few apps that work on the Samsung note3. Works best when rooted.
I am not able to open the videos in MX player.
Very slow in file transfer, crashes on Lollipop 5.1.1
App crashes when attempting to open USB
..on my Nexus 5x, it's the easiest way I've found to access my OTG USB drive. Thanks!
It's not supporting my Nexus 5x .. can u help me how to do it?!
It's just awesome
Works perfectly on my Nexus 6P, root is not needed. I can copy/paste either direction from the phone to the SD card, or vice versa. I don't understand why file manager apps can't do this, but the interface here is super easy to use and being that most people will only plug in an SD card to transfer some stuff off their phone and then uplug the SD card, this app is perfect for that.
Are you able to provide a preview of what is being stored between the thumbdrive and phone. Have to keep remembering the file name on what has been stored and what not. Also a cut and paste option will be great rather then just copy and paste.
Most other apps wouldn't do this.
Can't we cut & paste files within the otg folders??
Does what it is supposed to.
Will only mount one drive at a time. Don't bother if you have a hub.
Application doesnt work with multiples file, i try to copy over 600 pics to a Sandisk dual, stop and many files missing and the ones who copy are 0kb
When copying a large amount of data it misses files. I would have lost a lot of information if it wasn't for my cloud back ups. Worst paid app ever....
App looks nice but it does not work / lags a lot...
Tried it and it could not read use flash drive on my android 10 phone
