Description

Hello, first of all thank you for this great app, very well done.

I was wondering if it was possible to use this app to fill a gap left by apple concerning the ejection of usb or hard disks/ssd because apple has not implemented an "eject safely" function which can sometimes cause data corruption.

The only solution is to turn off the ipad or to check that the led is not blinking anymore (if it is present on the disk!). I have tried to look at the mount/umount option but it is not present.

Is it possible to add them or is there another way to safely eject a disk/usb? Thank you!
