USB Media Explorer (UME) was formerly Nexus Media Importer. It allows you to view photos (Jpeg, Raw), stream videos 1,, listen and play music, and view documents stored on USB storage devices. You can use these screens to view photos, videos, music and documents. You can copy files to and from your USB device. You can view full-size photos or videos without the need to import!

To email support, tap “Homesoft” on the About screen. I do read and respond to reviews. However, it can be difficult to resolve issues because they are one-way. Please include your Android device, the USB device that you are trying to use and a description.
