I'll be surprised if there aren't shorter ones. It's bigger than a micro SD card but not as easily lost.

I've transferred books a couple of times from my phone to my Kindle with a cable.

My shortest USB2Go cable is about an inch long and the shortest I've seen was a simple converter (about a third of an inch?)

But with my current phone I don't even need one, I'll just connect whatever device I have to my phone directly (I did need a converter from USB-A to USB-C though )
