It allows your phone to connect to a USB memory stick.

OTG

How do I make it work? I connected a wireless keyboard to my N7, but I dunno how to make it work. :c

Must be rooted first. Then it will work.

1. For an OTG, you just need the cable [micro hmdi male to usb female] and a usb device, like an external hard drive, mouse, etc.
2. If its was a wireless keyboard, you just need to have bluetooth on an pair correctly, i'd try to re-pair the devices.

Lenovo A850+ OTG USB cable

Hello, i got cheap OTG USB cable and try to connect two different flash drives, keyboard and mouse without any success. Is there any option to start OTG function. on Lenovo A850+ ??. I try USB OTG Help and Stick Mount apps, but dosent help. I read that Lenovo A850+ support OTG. Thanks in advance for help.

If your tablet supports OTG USB, it should start automatically. At least that's how it is with Galaxy and Nexus tablets. I know that Lenovo usually has their own GUI on top of Android so wonder if they use some custom driver or need something to be enabled in system setting? You better off searching XDA or AndroidForums for your specific tablet to post in that section.
Also, make sure you have a working cable. Can you try it with another tablet or the phone, just to be sure?

Yes but first u need to enable OTG connection option in settings>additional settings>OTG connection

I don't know why, but I couldn't get it to work on my Realme X for some reason (even after turning on OTG connection option on settings). It works fine on my friend's Galaxy A7.
