Good it exists, for people like you.

Once the OS stopped letting me use my SD card with my phone, by 256GB internal storage has not been enough for me, I’ve had to remove some stuff I’d prefer to have on my phone off it.

What are you putting on your phone that needs that much storage? Photos or videos should be moved onto something with redundancy

I have my storage both in my phone and computer with Syncthing, I want it entirely on my phone too. I also have English Wikipedia downloaded, and about 40GB of movies/TV Shows

the solution to that is wanting back normal sd card support. I’ll never buy a phone without it, and I’m not just saying it. I need the removable storage that is not a USB stick but something inside of the phone, and I think this is a basic thing. it’s a shame though that in the fairphones you can only access it after getting out the battery.

Well, my phone has an SD card slot, which I bought a 512GB micro SD card to go in, and I used extensively, then about a month ago the OS stopped letting me write to it. And there aren’t any alternate OSs for my device, just Motorola Android

You might want to consider googling the problem and fixing it.

can you write it from a PC? or did it stop working after an update?
