Realme Phones How To Connect And Use An OTG USB Memory

Our phones have traditionally been more compatible with different storage media than we thought. A good example is the OTG USB protocols, which allow us to connect memories of this type to our phones and read or modify their contents. Today we tell you how to do it on a Realme phone, which is very simple.

It can be something that gets us out of trouble at any given moment, being able to access a USB memory from our mobile and being able to edit, copy or move files to or from it. For this the best thing is to do what we are going to tell you next.

What can you do with one of these memories from your mobile?

Well, without a doubt the best thing is that it is one of the best alternatives for those people who do not have a PC at home. Normally from it they would copy files or documents downloaded from the Internet, and they could transport them in a physical memory, to which they would have copied from their computer.

But if you don’t have a PC at hand, it wouldn’t be possible, unless you use this method of OTG connectivity from the USB port of your Realme mobile. For this, you would only need to buy a USB-A adapter , which is to which a USB memory is connected, to USB type C or microUSB, depending on the connector of your Realme. If you already have it, you should not do much more than what we are going to explain now, something especially simple.

How can OTG be activated and used on a Realme?

Well, it is really simple, since if we have the necessary adapter, we will only have to connect the USB memory to it, and activate the functionality on your Realme mobile. To do this you must add from the Android shortcuts one that gives access to this OTG option. Slide the notification bar and edit the shortcuts of the system, adding that of “OTG”. Once activated, you must do the following:

* Connect the USB memory to the port of your mobile
* Open the “File Manager” application on your Realme
* Select “Categories”
* Swipe the screen and click on “OTG” in the “Storage locations” section

From here you will access the file system of the USB memory, in the same way that you would with a microSD card. Its operation is the same, being able to copy and paste files from the folders of the USB memory to the phone, and vice versa. Therefore, every time you connect a memory, you will only have to activate the connectivity from the quick access, and access the files from the explorer.
