Notes
• System apps removal is a risky operation. I do not hold any responsibility in case the functionality of your OS is damaged in any way when using this feature • Some system apps cannot be removed due to restrictions enforced by the ROM itself, but the app will try handling it the best it can, and sometimes a restart is needed to see the result • You can remove the ads by donating as much as you wish • Please feel free to rate the app and show your opinion (preferably via the forum) on which features you'd like to have for the next versions • Please check the forum website for FAQ if you have some questions

This app, helps a lot of people, but heck. My phone just can't, really install apps. I don't know if it blocks me from installing apk files... but it's fine. It is what it is. I'll just leave a 5-star rate here. ^^

Been using this app for more than 8 years... Always the first few app that I install on a new phone. A very awesome app! 👍🏻 I understand that ads are the revenue for Dev, but I just hope that the ads can be smaller. Like what others have mentioned, the ad is taking up nearly half the screen. I don't mind paying for the app and get rid of the ads if it's more affordable. 😅 Anyway, keep up the good work 👍🏻

Love it, I used Shikoku with app manager to remove all the unwanted data of my app.

Just wanted to install .apkm as it was advertised. No luck. I can't specify the file to install as there is no file choose dialog just that automatic scan thing which dig through the whole file system and finds everything except I need to. Also, that nasty ad taking 1/3 of screen, and you have to pay to disable it. No free disable as mentioned below. Combined with the bulky interface with huge list items there are about 2 file list items fits on screen in that useless search thing.

Recent update prompted me to allow permissions that I couldn't see why and was not happy to allow so uninstalled it. Shame it had been useful in the past. Also I notice others saying banner ads now so happy to lose it.

Useless app ever... I want it to close and uninstall and app that I can't do with my default manager. It keeps opening my default manager. Without any work it shows ads.
