Comments on Superuser for Android

★★★★★ Download and root yuppie
★★★★★ Bird
★★★★★ Super cool
★★★★★ It Awesom
★★★★★ Worker Perfectly
★★★★★ Thebomb
★★★★★ Easy to use,i love it
★★★★★ Good
★★☆☆☆ It doesn't work and it is not giving superuser permission to any app
★★☆☆☆ Installed and removed this 3 times so far in 2 years. I always uninstall because when I launch, I always see the message saying super su binary is out of date, and what appears to be the only update path (the option which does not say 'cancel') leads to repeated failure. Maybe fix the update message? Yeah, that.
★★☆☆☆ Doesn't seem to want to work with my OP2 on lineageOS

Troubleshooting

Issues installing or upgrading from another Superuser or SuperSU? Try the recovery zip installation linked below.

Apps being denied? Disable the "Declared Permission" setting, and delete the "Deny" policies.

This app requires that you already have root, or a custom recovery image to work.

Apps not being remembered? Start the superuser app to make sure the su binary is up to date.

Features
* Multiuser support
* OPEN SOURCE (https://github.com/koush/Superuser)
* Pin protection
* Manifest permission support
* Per app configuration
* FREE
* Request timeout
* Logging
* Notifications
* Proper Tablet UX


Why another Superuser?

* Superuser should be open source. It's the gateway to root on your device. It must be open for independent security analysis. Obscurity (closed source) is not security.
* Superuser should be NDK buildable. No internal Android references.
* Superuser should also be AOSP buildable for those that want to embed it in their ROM.
* Superuser should also be AOSP embeddable, meaning a ROM can easily embed it into their Settings app.
* Maintenance and updates on both the market and source repositories should be timely.
* If something goes wrong, I can fix it.
* Handle multiuser (4.2+) properly
* Handle concurrent su requests properly
