EtchDroid

WINDOWS ISOs ARE **NOT** SUPPORTED! Do not report issues if you're flashing a Windows ISO.

EtchDroid is an open-source application that helps you write images to USB drives, no root required.

You can use it to make a bootable GNU/Linux USB drive when your laptop is dead and you're in the middle of nowhere.
