Works for me. My phone and tablets have USB C sockets, and all my OTG cords are micro-USB for Raspberry Pi--but I dug out and old phone, so:

I've ordered a couple of USB C OTG cables from Amazon--supposed to arrive tomorrow.

I'm not sure whether or not I have any programs which do ASCII screen drawing--I'll look.

This might be a better PCB to use for experimenting with different I/O modules:

A program which produces the following when run with a TeraTerm terminal crashes the USBterminal app on the phone when the same code on the same PicoMite is run.

Code which produces this on PicoMite in Teraterm:

Produces this in USBterminal app (so background colors not honored):

For i=48 To 55
For j=48 To 55
Print Chr$(27);"[3"+Chr$(i)+";"+"4"+Chr$(j)+"mABCDEFGH";
Next
Print
Next
Print Chr$(27);"[37;40m" ' clear to white on black

Note that whatever shortfalls USBterminal may have right now, it looks like a pretty useful terminal for PicoMite development with just a cell phone.
