ZUGate, app that let you mount ext4 in Android

Hey, this is my first blog. Let's get into the topic. Normally Android uses Linux filesystem which is ext4, but when it comes to external storage devices like Micro SD Card or HDD connected through USB-OTG, device cannot detect it when it has ext4 partitions in it. Mainly FAT32, exFAT and NTFS are supported by OEMs. Even some don't exFAT too. So to get it working, we can use an app called ZUGate developed by ZDevs(developer of ZArchiver) which is available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zugate - How to use it? Install the app and plug an external storage device using USB-OTG. A popup will appear to use ZUGate to browse the storage. - I have tested v0.3(315) in my Realme C12 RMX2189 running Android 10. This app supports Android 8+ devices only
