File explorer

What app can I use to view content from a USB flash drive connected to my tablet?

Welcome to Android Central! I've never tried it, but I would imagine that most good file explorers can. Try Total Commander or ES File Explorer.

Es file explorer ftw.

None of these options worked. I'm using an adapter to plug a USB flash drive directly into my tablet. I still haven't found an app to browse the files on my USB.

What device are you plugging your flash drive into? It may not support USB OTG.

It is a micro USB to USB adaptor. I'm hoping to use it as an external storage for videos.

But what make and model of tablet or phone is what I meant. And what version of Android OS.

You need to be rooted on that device unless you wait for the KitKat update which will let you use USB OTG.

Take a look at this for some pointers
