12 awesome apps for root Android users

Android modifications come in a variety of forms. Some are merely cosmetic – think replacing your stock app icons, trying out a different system font, or switching to a third-party lock screen, to give a few examples. Others tinker with Android's inner workings to enable advanced features, such as the ability to remove bloatware or to modify app permissions. Then there's rooting – the process of obtaining administrator privileges over the operating system. While having root access doesn't do much on its own, it has long become the most popular Android hack as it paves the way for a plethora of awesome modifications to be executed.

What modifications, you ask? Well, just flip through the slideshow below to get a better idea. We've collected some of the most useful and fun Android apps for root users – utilities that let you truly take control of your Android smartphone or tablet. But beware – using some root apps can be tricky, if not dangerous. There's always the risk of something not turning out as expected, so make sure you back-up your important data before applying any modifications. With that out of the way, here are the apps we've picked for you.

AdBlock Plus


AdBlock Plus is a free, open source application that removes advertisements on your Android device. It’s considered a must-have for root users even if those of us who make a living on advertising hate that. This one is configurable so that some unobtrusive ads get through which is nice and the app is configurable. It’s not available on the Google Play Store but there is an official link from ABP that you can use by clicking the button below. It’s considered to be one of the must-have root apps.

Lucky Patcher


Lucky Patcher App: Today in play store some apps are very amazing, and everyone wants to use them, but the main thing which doesn’t let us use those apps is that we should have to make in-app purchases. In simple words, we have to pay if we need to use those apps, but it can be risky just because nowadays the trend of hacking is growing and it is possible that your details will get hacked. So this is the biggest problem, and also that is why some people don’t want to make the in-app purchase, but now it is possible to use those apps for free. Yes, you get it right what I’m saying is correct.

Dumpster


Dumpster is a data recovery tool that can find files you have deleted and then restore them. It supports photos and videos like most, but also music files, documents, PDFs, and pretty much anything you may have accidentally deleted. Like most recovery tools, root isn’t required for use but having root access can improve the app’s performance and help it find more lost files. Once installed, it acts like the Recycle Bin on your computer and you can delete files permanently if needed. It’s a good app to have around, just in case.
