    you will need to do factory reset

    Or you could just reenable the app with adb. 🙄 This isn’t doing anything you couldn’t do with a one-liner.

      Yes, but as this app is designed for people like me who don’t have access to other hardware then factory reset would be my only option.

      If you don’t have a desktop you can’t use it so to have something that does the same that you can use on mobile is pretty cool.

      The app lets you use system features that are normally not available for regular apps. Basically it runs a service which has access to some System API’s that can be granted to regular apps so think of it like you would have root without having root.

      It’s just a on-device GUI for the built in debugging tools, which might be used to grant permissions apps can’t usually request by themselves.

      It’s like USB ADB, but on device.

    From their readme:

    For the project as a whole, it is not free. You are FORBIDDEN to distribute the apk compiled by you (including modified, e.g., rename app name “Shizuku” to something else) to any store (IBNLT Google Play Store, F-Droid, Amazon Appstore etc.).

    I don’t get it?
