Open Source Application

[u/Unlikely-Internal307]

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm a developer, and I use my personal Android phone for both app development and everyday activities.

One problem I kept running into was having to turn off Developer Options or USB Debugging whenever I needed to use banking or e-wallet apps. Then, when I went back to development, I had to enable everything again.

It wasn't a huge problem, but doing it repeatedly became frustrating, especially when testing apps throughout the day.

So I decided to build Dev Mode, a free and open-source Android utility that makes switching between development and everyday phone usage easier.

Here's what it can do:

- ⚡ One-Tap Toggles: Quickly enable or disable Developer Options, USB Debugging, and Wireless Debugging.

- 🛡️ App Shield: Automatically turns off Developer Options when opening selected banking or protected apps, then restores them afterward.

- 🔌 Shizuku Support: Set up the required permissions directly on your phone without a PC.

- 📱 Home Screen Widgets: Quick access to toggles and protected apps.

- 💻 Companion CLI: Control developer settings and connect to your Android device from your PC terminal.

- 🌍 20 Languages: Support for developers from different countries.

I also decided to make it open-source so other developers can inspect the code, suggest improvements, report bugs, and contribute.

The app is still evolving, and I'm continuously improving it based on feedback.
