7 Best root Apps for Android
It’s true that rooting your device is far less popular than the good old days. Stock Android grew up quite a bit and root is simply less appealing than it once was. Also, apps like Netflix, Pokemon Go, and Google Pay don’t work on rooted devices without some fun hacks for some dumb reason. However, there are still those who prefer the root experience and there are still plenty of excellent root apps that improve functionality and do stuff that unrooted devices can’t do. Here are the best root apps for Android! We also left Chainfire’s apps off of the list because, well, he’s throwing in the towel. We wish him all of the best in his future endeavors.
1.Ad block Plus
AdBlock Plus is a free, open source app. As you may have guessed, it removes ads from the device. Root users swear by this one We bloggers don't like it, but we've accepted that people really do find this app useful. This one is configurable so that some unobtrusive ads get through. The app is also lightly configurable. It’s not available on the Google Play Store but there is an official link from ABP that you can use by clicking the button above. It’s definitely among the best root apps.
2.Apps2Sd
Apps2SD moves apps to the SD card with root. It works like most apps-to-SD apps. This one moves the APK, odex, dex, lib, internal data, external data, and more. The app also includes a Busybox installer, app remover, support for adoptable storage, a terminal emulator, and some more useful tools. Moving apps to the SD card isn't as popular as it once was. However, it still works well for devices with less internal storage. Additionally, the other tools are still quite useful. It's free with advertising.
JRummy is a developer on Google Play with tons of popular root apps. Some of those apps include the popular ROM Toolbox (sans its app manager thanks to Google Play policies), a BuildProp editor, a root file explorer, BusyBox installer, and many more. These apps fill in a bunch of basic root use cases. The ROM Toolbox is the flagship app with a ton of features built-in. The apps vary in cost, but most of them have a free version as well as a premium version

Kernel Manager is a root app for devices with Franco Kernel installed. The lets users tweak a variety of things, including CPU frequencies, the governor, GPU frequencies, color temperature presets, and a lot more. It also supports at bunch of devices, specifically in the Google and OnePlus lineup of devices. This isn't the only app for a specific aftermarket ROM or kernel. However, this is definitely the best one if it's compatible with your device. It runs for $3.49 and it's highly recommended for those who want more control.
Magisk is one of the most popular and powerful root apps. It's also relatively new. Its big function is allowing you to hide root very effectively. That lets you do things like watch Netflix or play Pokemon Go while rooted. It has a variety of other functions, including modules that add even more functionality. It's a real must-have root app. It's not longer available on Google Play. Thus, you'll have to pick up the APK from XDA-Developers. The app is also in active development. That means it gets new features, designs, and fixes fairly frequently.
Quick Boot is an app that is both absurdly simple and absurdly useful. In most versions of Android, the power menu is weak sauce and you can only power down and sometimes you can reboot. Quick Reboot fixes this by allowing you to boot to recovery, and boot to bootloader. It can also go to device-specific things like Download Mode for Samsung devices or fastboot on certain devices. It’s quick, simple, and makes finding an advanced power menu for your device a little bit less of a priority. It’s definitely one of those root apps that everyone should have.
Rashr is one of the newer root apps with flashing capabilities. It supports a variety of things, including recovery flashes, kernel backup, IMG flashing, logging, and much more. The app contains ads. However, they are optional for developer support. You can actually disable them in the settings if you want. The app is entirely free also with optional donations for development support. It's also open source. This is probably the best flashing app available right now that still gets regular updates.
