Features & Capabilities

Shortcut for Storage Settings Chrome Extension

This extension creates a convenient shortcut to the Storage Settings directly on your notification bar, specifically designed for Sony Xperia V phones running Android 4.2. It facilitates quick access to manage USB mass storage devices connected via USB-OTG, which otherwise lack a straightforward way to unmount or mount storage.

Key Features:

Adds a shortcut to Storage Settings on the notification bar for faster access.
Supports quick mount and unmount of USB devices on compatible devices.
Provides an option to launch a preferred file manager when storage is mounted.

Important Notes:

This extension does not add USB host support; use only on devices with existing USB-OTG hardware capability.
It is primarily tested on Sony Xperia V with Android 4.2 and may not work on other devices.
Newer Android versions may restrict unmounting without root access.
Open source with available source code on GitHub.

Ideal for users needing faster control over USB storage devices without navigating through multiple settings menus.

User Reviews

Users broadly praise Shortcut for Storage Settings as a fast, reliable shortcut to eject/unmount USB OTG drives and a workaround for OS changes that removed the official eject button. It works across many devices and Android versions, saving time and reducing menu fiddling. A few users report occasional instability or device-specific crashes, and one mentions incompatibility with Firestick. Overall, it's considered a small, useful utility for frequent OTG users.

Pros

Provides a quick, reliable shortcut to eject/unmount USB OTG drives from storage settings.
Works across a wide range of devices and Android versions without root.
Saves time by reducing fiddling with storage menus.
Addresses OS changes that removed or hid the official eject option.
Simple to use and lightweight; broadly well-received across brands.

Not perfect but good enough and acts as a nice shortcut to safely remove usb memory stick from my Samsung device whilst there seems to be a glitch somewhere that prevents my notifications from giving me the official shortcut to remove device. Glad this app exists!
