About this app

UserLAnd is an open-source app which allows you to run several Linux distributions like Ubuntu,
Debian, and Kali.

- No need to root your device.
- Use a built-in terminal to access your favorite shells.
- Easily connect to VNC sessions for a graphical experience.
- Easy setup for several common Linux distributions, like Ubuntu and Debian.
- Easy setup for several common Linux applications, like Octave and Firefox.
- A way to experiment and learn Linux and other common software tools from the palm of your hand.

UserLAnd was created and is being actively maintained by the folks behind the popular Android
application, GNURoot Debian. It is meant as a replacement for the original GNURoot Debian app.

When UserLAnd first launches, it presents a list of common distributions and Linux applications.
Clicking one of these then leads to a series of set-up prompts. Once these have been completed,
UserLAnd will download and set up files required to start the task that has been selected. Based on
the set-up, you will then be connected to your Linux distribution or application in a terminal or
VNC viewing Android application.

Ratings and reviews

This is one of the best app I ever used. it's is easy to download and use Linux on mobile but you have to watch some tutorial video on YouTube, but it's very easy to set it only took about 10-20 min sometime more

internet in desktop doesn't work, gimp isn't even in the Linux desktop and separate app on my phone! that's a no go! but yes, you can install termux and termux:x11 as an alternative to this paid version. all of what this dev made is free just ask Gemini, not other ai, why? unlimited prompts 😊 and helpful advice it gives.

Linux on cellphone is a must, portable,efficient,convenient, great app! Thanks!
