App Manager - Android package manager

A full-featured open source package manager for android.
New in version 3.0.4
This contains a number of bug fixes and improvements.

- Added notice for the funding campaign
- Display invalid native libraries (e.g. zip/APK files)
- Hide tips forever if close button is clicked
- Replaced block/unblock button with material switch
- Prevented installer from running forever in no-root mode due to the mismanagement of installer queue
- Fixed some broken features (e.g. MagiskHide, DenyList) due to I/O errors in libsu.
App Manager began by merging the features of App_packages Info (formerly Application Info), ClassyShark3xodus, Activity Launcher and Watt into a single app with material design and dark mode to give a modern look and feel.

Features:

  • Free and open source

  • Material design (and a nice UI)

  • No useless permissions requested

  • Does not connect to the Internet without explicit permission from the user

  • Display as much information as possible in the main window

  • Lists activities, broadcast receivers, services, providers, permissions, signatures, shared libraries, etc. of any app

  • Launch (exportable) activities, create (customizable) shortcuts

  • Block any activities, broadcast receivers, services or providers with native import/export as well as Watt and Blocker import support (requires root)

  • Revoke dangerous permissions (requires root/ADB)

  • Disable any app ops, therefore any hidden permissions (requires root/ADB)

  • Scan for trackers in apps and list (all or only) tracking classes (and their code dump)

  • Generate dynamic manifest for any application

  • View/edit/delete shared preferences of any app (requires root)

  • View/kill/force-stop running apps/process (requires root/ADB)

  • View app usage, data usage and app storage info (requires “Usage Access” permission)

  • Apk file sharing (hence the use of a provider)

  • Clear app data or app cache (requires root/ADB)

  • Batch operations: clear app data, disable run in background, disable/kill/uninstall apps

  • One-click operations: block ads/tracker components, block components by signature, block multiple app ops



...and other minor features such as installing/uninstalling/updating/enabling/disabling apps, displaying app installation info, opening on F-Droid, Aurora Droid or Aurora Store.

It basically combines the features of 5 or 6 apps that any tech-savvy person needs to use in order to have a life.

See the instructions page within the app for more information on how to use the app.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
