What is FOSS Root Checker?

FOSS Root Checker as the name suggests is an Open Source Root Checker app for verifying Root Access on Android Mobile Devices. Ever wondered what Root Checker Apps do behind the scenes on your Phones once you give them Root Access?

Well that's why I made this App! It is just a simple Root Checker for Newbies but with Transparency of what is done.

How it works: Search Root: Checks 40+ system paths to find traces of root access. Verify Root: Executes the command su -c id. If it returns 0, access is verified. BusyBox: Checks specific paths and executes su -c which busybox to verify installation. Performance: All checks run on a background thread (Dispatchers.IO) to keep your device responsive.

Key Features: Ultra Low Footprint! Privacy First Design with full transperancy. ? Reduced Animations Enforced on Low end Devices ( if RAM < 4 GB ). ? No Ads, In-App Purchases and no Data Collection. ? Modern Material UI with Monet Theming. ? Support for Android 6+ Devices. ? Works with Magisk, KernelSU, KSU Forks, APatch and older Methods ? Thorough Guidance provided on Rooting and Unlocking Bootloader. ?
