v2rayNG
A V2Ray client for Android, support Xray core and v2fly core
A V2Ray client for Android supports Xray core and v2fly core. geoip.dat and geosite.dat files are in Android/data/com.v2ray.ang/files/assets (path may differ on some Android devices). Download feature will get an enhanced version in this repo (Note it need a working proxy). The latest official domain list and ip list can be imported manually. It's possible to use third-party dat files in the same folder, like h2y. Android projects under V2rayNG folder can be compiled directly in Android Studio or using Gradle wrapper. But the v2ray core inside the aar is (probably) outdated. The aar can be compiled from the Golang project under AndroidLibV2rayLite folder. v2rayNG can run on Android Emulators. But VPN mode will not work if the system doesn't support it. -

Gnirehtet
Gnirehtet provides reverse tethering for Android
Gnirehtet is a reverse tethering tool for Android that allows a phone or tablet to use the internet connection of the computer it is connected to over adb. Unlike traditional tethering, which shares a phone’s connection with a computer, this project works in the opposite direction and is especially helpful for testing Android devices on controlled desktop networks. The software does not require root access on either the Android device or the host computer, which makes it more practical for developers, testers, and power users working in standard environments. It supports GNU/Linux, Windows, and macOS, and it relays TCP and UDP traffic over IPv4, giving it broad usefulness for app testing and device connectivity scenarios. The project includes both Rust and Java implementations, with the Rust version recommended because it uses less CPU and memory and does not require a Java runtime. -

A tool for reverse engineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications. It also makes working with an app easier because of the project like file structure and automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk, etc. It is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms, analyzing applications and much more. The decode option on Apktool can be invoked either from d or decode. In order to run a rebuilt application. You must resign the application. Android documentation can help with this. As you probably know, Android apps utilize code and resources that are found on the Android OS itself. These are known as framework resources and Apktool relies on these to properly decode and build apks. -

AltStore
AltStore is an alternative app store for non-jailbroken iOS devices
AltStore is an alternative app distribution system for iOS that works without a jailbreak by using your own Apple ID to sideload and periodically re-sign apps. It pairs with a companion desktop app, AltServer, running on macOS or Windows, which handles signing and pushing apps to your device over Wi-Fi or USB. Once installed, AltStore can refresh app signatures automatically, keeping them usable beyond the standard seven-day limit that applies to free developer profiles. Users can install featured apps as well as add third-party “sources,” enabling a wider ecosystem of utilities, emulators, and experimental tools that aren’t available through the official App Store. The design emphasizes safety and transparency: apps are signed with your credentials, you can see what’s installed and when it will expire, and you control which sources you trust. -

Dopamine
Dopamine is a semi-untethered jailbreak for iOS 15 and 16
Dopamine is a rootless semi-untethered jailbreak for supported iOS 15 and iOS 16 devices. It is designed for users who want to run jailbreak tweaks and package managers without modifying the system partition in the older rootful style. The project supports specific arm64e and arm64 firmware ranges, so compatibility depends strongly on device type and iOS version. Dopamine uses a modern rootless jailbreak architecture, which aligns with how newer iOS jailbreak ecosystems handle file paths, tweak injection, and package compatibility. It includes an app-based workflow for enabling, disabling, and managing the jailbreak state after installation. Dopamine is a specialized iOS modification tool and should only be used by users who understand the security, stability, warranty, and update risks involved. -

Magisk Manager
Companion Android application for Magisk
Magisk Manager is the companion Android app historically used to manage the Magisk root solution—installing updates, toggling modules, configuring DenyList/Hide-like behavior, and passing device integrity checks where possible. It centralizes operations that would otherwise require flashing or command-line work, making root management accessible to power users and developers. The app surfaces module repositories, logs, and safety features, giving you insight into what’s modified and how it affects system behavior. Over time, its role evolved alongside Android’s changing security model, but the core idea remains: provide a clean UI for patching, updating, and managing a systemless root environment. It also acts as a troubleshooting hub, exposing diagnostics that help users resolve boot loops or module conflicts. For anyone maintaining a rooted device for legitimate development and customization, Magisk Manager is the operational control center that keeps the stack coherent. -
