🔌 What Is an OTG Cable and Why You Need It

A modern smartphone is more than just a communication device — it’s a full-fledged mini-computer.

But sometimes, we miss the features of a regular PC: connecting a flash drive, keyboard, mouse, or camera.

That’s where the OTG cable (On-The-Go) comes in — a small adapter that allows your phone to act as a “host” and control external devices.

📘 What OTG Means

OTG stands for On-The-Go.

It’s a technology that allows devices to communicate directly without using a computer.

In simple terms, a phone with OTG support can become a USB host, just like a computer, and manage other devices connected to it.

⚙️ How the OTG Cable Works

A regular USB cable simply connects a phone to a computer:

• the computer acts as the host,
• the smartphone acts as the device.
