Root Prefs & SQLite Editor

Root File & Data Manager — a root file manager and app-data editor for developers. Inspect and edit shared preferences, SQLite, DataStore and files on your own device, with root or Shizuku (no root).

Root File & Data Manager is a root file browser and data editor for developers, QA engineers, and power users who need to inspect and edit application data on their own devices. It turns tedious adb pulls and manual file surgery into a fast, native Android file manager. No desktop, no cables.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

📂 Root File Browser — Navigate the file system and an installed app's data directory: shared_prefs, DataStore, databases, files and caches, each classified by type. A full root file manager, not just a viewer.

⚙️ Shared Preferences Editor — View and edit key/value preferences with correct typing: boolean, int, long, float, string and string set.

🗄️ DataStore Editor — Read and edit modern Jetpack DataStore (.preferences_pb) files without wrestling with protobuf by hand.

🗃️ SQLite Editor — Browse tables, inspect rows, and edit records, a full on-device SQLite database editor and viewer.

🔢 Hex Editor — Byte-level inspection and editing for any file.

📋 Per-App Logcat — Follow a single app's log output while you debug it, filtered and readable.

🔎 Security Self-Audit — Scan your own app's APK for hardcoded credentials and API keys.

🧩 App Inspector — Review an app's permissions, components and activities, inspect its manifest, and read its network security config.

WHO IT'S FOR

This is a developer and power-user file manager. Use it to debug your own apps, reproduce QA scenarios, migrate or back up settings, recover data, and inspect apps you own or are authorized to work with. It is not a game-cheating tool, and it is not for accessing or altering data on devices or apps you do not own or have permission to modify.

NO ROOT NEEDED FOR YOUR OWN DEBUG BUILDS

With the no-root Shizuku backend (ADB shell), you can inspect and edit the private data of your own debuggable builds (android:debuggable=true): shared_prefs, DataStore, SQLite and files, all without root.

ACCESS

This app needs privileged access to reach protected storage; it never bypasses Android's security on its own.

• Shizuku (no root) — external Android/data & obb files, plus the private data of your own debuggable apps (via run-as).

• Root — full read/write access to app data on the device.

The editors need one of these. The App Inspector (package details, requested permissions, the activity list, the APK scan) works without either.

BUILT RIGHT

100% Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. No ads, no tracking, no accounts; nothing you open or edit leaves the device. Reading is free, and a one-time purchase unlocks editing, file import and delete, the inspector's actions and the full APK scan. No subscription.

DISCLAIMER

Editing app data can break an app. Always keep a backup and only change what you understand. Intended for development, debugging, QA, backup and security auditing of apps you own or are authorized to work with. Use responsibly and at your own risk.
