About this app

This app allows you to open certain android settings, which some phone vendors hide from the user.

App uses knowledge about android system that is not documented, so not all settings will work on your phone.

Please use this app with caution, and only change settings that you understand.

You don't need to have a rooted phone, and no permissions are requested!

Ratings and reviews

This app is dangerous. There's absolutely nothing in the UI that attempts to explain what the entries are, not even a package or class name. I tapped a setting looking for more information, and it popped up a message telling me "setting changed!" No prompt or anything. Six entries in a row that all have the same title, it's like pushing buttons in the dark. Very dangerous for a beginner, deceptively hazardous for an intermediate, and useless to an expert.

I use this app primarily to switch between 3g and 4g. Verizon's 4g network goes down a lot where I am. My phone doesn't automatically switch to 3g when there's no 4g. It just searches and searches for 4g, never finding anything. This app has helped me get a connection to the internet so many times that I've lost count. Easily one of the most useful apps for me on the play store. Also one of the reasons I've stuck with Android for so long. Simple, easy to use, lightweight. It's fantastic. Try it!

It's very simple. This app allows you to change settings that have been hidden by your carrier or device manufacturer. I used it to change the network mode to LTE Only so my phone doesn't go onto marginal 1x signals. To the people who don't live in the USA and selected an option called "USA Band", what exactly did you think was gonna happen? And did it occur to you that the reason nothing was selected there before is because this setting is deprecated and shouldn't be touched?
