Awesome

Shizuku allows normal apps to use system APIs directly with elevated privileges using ADB on non-rooted devices. This list compiles a few apps that are known to make use of Shizuku's capabilities.

More details: https://shizuku.rikka.app/

Pull requests are welcome. See Contributing for hints. Closed-source apps are listed in a separate file. See below for details.

[!NOTE] To stay up-to-date with this list, you can check the daily changelogs.

Closed-source apps

Closed-source apps have been moved into a separate sublist. You can view them here.

[!NOTE] Why are closed-source apps in a separate list? Shizuku gives apps high-level ADB access. For security reasons, this main directory only includes open-source and source-available apps, as anyone can check their code to make sure they aren't doing anything shady and compile them on their own machine.

Fully closed-source apps require blind trust, so they are kept in a separate list. Almost all closed-source apps have already open-source counterparts that implement the same (if not even more) features anyways.

Unlisted apps

To keep the main list clean, all apps that have been deprecated or abandoned are stored on a separate page: ARCHIVED.md

[!NOTE] I'm also using an automated crawler that searches for new projects, making use of Shizuku across GitHub and several F-Droid repos. You can view the current auto-generated crawl report here.

Searching Database…

What is this?A curated catalog of Android apps that use Shizuku, a tool that lets normal apps call privileged system APIs through ADB on a non-rooted device.
Is this an actual app, or just a directory of other apps?It is purely a README-based list; it does not install anything itself. You pick an app from a category and download it from its own source (GitHub, store, etc.).
How is the list organized so I can find something useful?Entries are grouped into topical sections like AI agents, Automation, Customization, Games, Input methods, Installer & app stores, Network, and more, plus separate sections for development libraries and closed-source apps.
Do I need Shizuku running before any of these apps will work?Yes, every listed app depends on the Shizuku service being installed and started (typically via ADB or wireless debugging) to gain its elevated permissions.
Are closed-source and unlisted apps included in the main list?No, closed-source Shizuku apps are kept in a separate file rather than mixed into the main categorized list, and there's also an unlisted-apps section for entries that don't fit the standard format.
Can I submit my own app to the list?Yes, pull requests are welcome, and the repo points to a Contributing guide with hints for formatting new entries.
What is in the Development libraries section?It's a separate part of the README listing programming libraries (grouped as Core, Filesystem, System, Power, and misc) for developers who want to build their own Shizuku-powered features rather than just use finished apps.
What is Rish?Rish is Shizuku's companion shell component, documented in its own README section alongside the app list.
How do I keep up with new additions without rereading everything?The project publishes daily changelogs so you can track what apps were added or updated since your last visit.
