Support:
- If you have an issue, you can tap "Homesoft" from the About screen for email support. I read and reply to reviews, but due to their one way nature, it’s difficult to resolve issues. If you have a support request, please include the Android device you are using, the USB device you are trying to use and a description of the problem.

Comments about USB Media Explorer Android Version
Updated, the develop seems to be planning to resolve some of the issues mentioned in my previous review. However, I should not have relied on this app for important work-related files or use it with large quantities of files, due to the lack of separation of Favorites into a new folder, and the glitchiness of the app in general. Created much more work for me when I purchased it to make life easier...
Okay I have a couple trail cameras and this is the best app for reading my memory cards. I am able to set it up to view all pictures or videos. (Just a remember you have too have your trail camera set for videos.) You can also select your pictures by swiping picture too picture. Or let it play picture to picture for you, have to select it in the settings. Can't hurt to try this app.
So I got the app for the purpose of being able to export to an exFAT drive from my pixel 6 pro (I saw it was a solution to no exFAT support on Reddit). The purpose of having an exFAT drive was to not have a file size limit. Well I come to find that I can't even transfer a 19 minute video because it exceeded the system max file size. The app is useless otherwise because transferring smaller videos doesn't require anything special and you don't need a third party to do it.

Yes, USB Media Explorer follows the Google Play content guidelines to ensure safe use on your Android device.
What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the USB Media Explorer I downloaded is an XAPK file?
Open up
A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation.
The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process.
XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application.
On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer.
But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.
Can I play USB Media Explorer on my computer?
Open up
Yes, you can play USB Media Explorer on your computer by installing LDPlayer, an Android emulator. After installing LDPlayer, simply drag and drop the downloaded APK file into the emulator to start playing USB Media Explorer on PC. Alternatively, you can open the emulator, search for the game or app you want to play, and install it from there.
