App Manager v3.0.0 comes with a lot of features and improvements. See Settings > Changelog for a more detailed changelog.
Material 3 and More
Material 3, somewhat similar to Material You, is a significant improvement over Material Design 2 with support for dynamic colours in Android 12 and later. In addition, many design changes have been made in App Manager without any significant changes in the overall user experience.
Known issue Switches are still based on Material Design 2 which will be fixed in a future release.
Wireless Debugging
Wireless debugging support has been fully implemented. Head over to the docs for instructions on how to configure wireless debugging.
No-root users. Due to auto-detection feature, startup time might be large for no-root users when the mode of operation is set to auto. Instead, no-root users should select no-root instead of auto.
Languages
App Manager is fully translated into Indonesian and Italian languages and can be enabled in settings. Bengali is removed due to lack of translators.
Introducing App Explorer
App Explorer can be used to browse the contents of an application. This includes binary XML files, DEX contents or any other media files. DEX contents can only be explored in Android Oreo (Android 8) and later. It's also possible to convert an .smali file into .java for a better understanding of the reversed code. This feature, if not needed, can be disabled in Settings > Enable/disable features.
Import Backups from Other Applications
It is possible to import backups from discontinued or obsolete applications such as Titanium Backup, OAndBackup and Swift Backup (version 3.0 to 3.2). Go to Setting > Backup/restore to find this option.
VirusTotal
VirusTotal is a widely used tool to scan files and URLs for viruses. In the scanner page and in the running apps page, an option to scan files with VirusTotal has been added. But the option is hidden by default. To enable the option, it is necessary to obtain an API key from VirusTotal. Go to Settings > VirusTotal API Key for more information.
Internet feature! This is currently the only feature which require an Internet connection. If you wish to use any Internet feature that might also be added in the future, enable Use the Internet in Settings > Enable/disable features.
Trigger Profiles from the Automation Software
As the implementation of routine operations is being delayed, an option to trigger profiles from the external automation software is added.
Visit docs for instructions on how to configure profile automation.
Improved Application Installer
Application installer includes several improvements including the ability to downgrade applications in no-root mode, installing multiple applications at once and blocking trackers after installation. In Android 12 and later, no-root users can update applications without any user interactions.
Component Blocking
It is now possible to configure how App Manager should block a component. Visit Settings > Rules > Default blocking method for more information. In the components tab, long clicking the block/unblock button opens a context menu which allows per-component blocking in a similar manner. ADB users can also block the components of a Test only app.
Advanced Searching
In some pages, the search bar supports additional searching which includes searching via prefix, suffix or even regular expressions. In the main page, it is also possible to search for applications using the first letters of each word, e.g. App Manager can be listed by searching for am.
Shared Libraries
Shared libraries tab has received a significant improvements. It can display three types of libraries, such as native, jar and APK files.
Make the Best Use of Interceptor
Activity interceptor can be opened directly from the activities tab by long clicking on the launch button, and similarly, activities can be launched from the activity interceptor page with or without root, for any users.
Notice. Currently, activities opened via root cannot send the results back to the original applications.
Widget: Screen Time
Screen time widget is quite similar to Digital Wellbeing's widget by the same name. It displays the total screen time for the day along with the top three apps from all users.
Widget: Clear Cache
Clear cache widget can be to clear cache from all the applications directly from the home screen.
