Scan Smartphone with Recuve (Not Recognizable)

Since my Nexus 5 (Android KitKat) is seen as a moveable disk(?) on my computer, recuva can't search through it. There is no external memory for the Nexus 5, so my only way to get to the files in the phone is by USB cable. I've been searching through the forums about recuva searching through the phone, but the topics are pretty old.

Is there any way I can search through it now with recuva?

Thank you for your help Trium, I hope that Piriform finds a way to scan Android's "Media-Transfer-Device (MTD)" in the future.
