This saved an issue using my Sony Android TV to create a folder on the usb drive. Somehow Sony Nougat ATV does not give the file explorer the window to grants permissions to SD Card. Using this I can write a folder name with the android app package, and then I can have the app use sd access. Thanks a lot for this. Question...can I use this to view files the files on the usb drive on my android tv not through Windows PC but on Another Android device.? Could not find an Android Client. Basically needs my videos recorded on one Android TV be available from other ANdroid TV on the house.

I purchased this on steam years ago, would I also have full version on android now? How would my nvidia shield know I have the license?

Virtual Here is awesome technology. I tried several other products that promise to do the same, and nothing really compares. I use it to bring USB devices to my cloud-based virtual machines. Couldn't work easier. It really is a well-polished tool. Licensing is a bit of a mess though. I understand that the developer wants to make sure they get paid per user. It wouldn't be fair, if a single license would end up being used by hundreds of people in a company. But tying the license to the hardware is awkward. I change my Android devices quite regularly, and for that matter, I change my laptops frequently too. I can take all of my other software with me, except for this one. $50 isn't a lot for a great tool, but things start adding up, if I have to pay $50 every year. I don't get *that* much use out of this tool. I need it maybe once every other month. For Android, it would make a lot of sense to offer a "pro" version of the app that includes the license key, but that is tied to the GMail account rather than to the client hardware. In the meantime, I bought a Glint MT300Nv2 and installed Virtual Here on there. Works beautifully. I just wish I didn't have to carry it around with me and could use my current Android phone instead.

It works really well to use USB devices without wires. I mostly use it for an XBOX 360 controller + dongle via the Android server. Forum and email support are very good and so far I've had nothing but good experiences. I would go to and read the dev's website to understand how activation works.

Awful experience with the trial limitations. Couldn't even get enough time to properly try things out with a single device. I don't feel comfortable giving this dev my money with how this was set up.

The developer is a complete jerk. If you buy a license, buy it on his website. Not through the in-app purchase, or you will be limited to 3 devices. But the better option is to use usbip for free and not pay this jerk who claims it's not just an usbip ui (doubt), open source software that can be had for free. Reverse client doesn't work right, even after forwarding the correct ports. I had to set up a vpn to connect remotely. He sucks and his software isn't better than the foss software it imitates

Over-priced with predatory licensing, which the developer has acknowledged and refuses to change. If you update your device, or get a new device, you will have to buy the license again. Every time. So. Because of this, I built an open-source version of this. That means it's FREE. It took me less than a week to make it. This is nothing special. USB IP, Mizuki via GitHub/Reddit.

After some effort I managed to get this working with an Xbox One wireless adapter on my nvidia shield + steam link app. That said, a $50 license is absolutely not worth being able to get a single game controller to work this way. Alternatives are sparse but the pricing limits it to only be worth it in very niche scenarios.
