Of course not, why would you? I just thought I'd read you had your phone rooted. If that wasn't the case and I just got confused, I apologize...

Indeed I rooted my phone when it was possible, but I checked USB OTG far before, so believe me, although it seems maybe unbelievable for you, USB mounts just correct for me.
Maybe there are other things which prevents you from mounting, see why someone can install apk's and someone not. In that special case I had both scenarios, sometimes it worked with installing apk's after factory reset, sometimes not.
But yes, mounting, reading and writing was possible without root. Even disconnect and connect again, just works.
BTW, today I got my meenova! Nice gadget

Quite a few users have had problems with mounting USB otg....or should I say, re-mounting after removing, device needs to be rebooted to enable otg mount again!!
Even if using StickMount and other utilities, it cannot be got to work, on my rooted device anyway......
also the side loading problem persists, despite all the solutions offered.
So user experience is different for different users, which is unfortunate, as it is not a universal experience for all.

This one works OK on my rooted Moto G. As well as BSPlayer for movies, I've used Titanium Backup with it and a 32GB micro sd card as the backup destination:

My Meenova arrived today (carbon black), looks & works great, still can't write to it though... My wife's HTC One does though, good ol motorola breaking the USB function.

Looks very nice, i am waiting for one similar to this, post fb after
moto G OTG with kit kat and large micro sdxc cards
It seems that moto G is getting kit kat update OTA, and, by reading on Meenova website, they tell that moto X's OTG works with kit kat, but only with root or 3rd party apps, which is pretty sad, cause they put great functions on the phone, but try to hide them. Should it be the same with moto G?
And, also, anyone tried OTG with 64GB micro sdxc cards?
Thanks!

Received mine, and got a 32GB card. I can access it via File Explorer, but music apps won't detect what i have in it (i even created a folder named Music).
Also, cannot create files/folders nor copy content there. So no write.
Moto G 8gb XT1032 retail.DE, locked BL no root, running stock.

It works well on my end with the meenova

The Meenova works as well as my standard OTG cable. What doesn't work is writing to external SD media. That is a software/firmware issue with the Moto G and nothing to do with the Meenova per se.
I dropped my phone and landed on my meenova cracked and USB popped out!! I just got it today in mail. Is there another company that makes one same compact size for a cheaper price

23Hey there,
I think that more people want to check this out in case 8 GB are not enough and USB OTG cables are too much hassle for you:
