Methods, systems, and devices for facilitating pass-through USB connectivity are provided. A computing device engages with an accessory device such that the computing device connects to a corresponding USB engine in the accessory device. A signal corresponding to an engagement of an external device to the accessory device is detected and a determination of whether to disconnect the computing device from the corresponding USB engine is made as a function of a set of logic operations upon detecting the signal. A USB connection between the computing device and the external device is established as a function of the set of logic operations such that the USB connection is only established if the computing device has been disconnected from the accessory device.
