Back in the day - rooting Android phones and installing custom ROMs were such a big part of Android. I remember so well using titanium backup and Greenify and Cyanogenmod and the list goes on.

Is it still necessary to root in 2023 though?

I have been on vanilla Android without root access for the past couple of years and at this point most root features have made it into the vanilla Android OS. What are your thoughts?

    Looks like it hasn’t had updates since 2019, but if it ain’t broke why fix it?

      Yeah I agree with that.

      But generally apps that do something more advanced get outdated every year with new android versions with different permissions and API. This is why I was asking.

      But I guess this app has nothing that got impacted.
