I have thought about this but then got distracted. I don't know which permissions Subsurface-mobile on Android would need to get access to mounted filesystems and if we could get an Intent that tells us where the Descent is mounted - but this certainly seems doable. I just don't think I'll have time to look into this any time soon.
