Expandable storage has long been a prominent and coveted feature in Android devices, but some of them — the HTC One, Motorola Moto X, and Google Nexus 7, to name a few — don’t have it.

However, as I noted recently in “How to use external storage to expand unexpandable Android devices,” you’re not totally out of luck. Thanks to USB On the Go (OTG for short), you can connect flash drives to some smartphones and tablets, though it does require a cable.

That’s not a particularly elegant solution, what with the cable hanging off the bottom of your device and a flash drive hanging off the cable. Enter Meenova, a small microSD card reader for Android devices. Born on Kickstarter, it’s now available for preorder in your choice of four colors. Total price: $12.

The Meenova works with microSD cards as large as 64GB.
