Perfect, is what it says, all functions are properly accessible and UI is simple even for inexperienced users.

★★★★★ Sahil Bhandari · Aug 19, 2021

So far so good this is the only app worked for me xD thank you developer................

★★★★★ Mark West · Jan 24, 2021

Great installation of Busy Box for 'droid. Easy access to applets and scripts. Includes every feature I could think of off the top of my limited intellect. Having compared a few this is the best of the FREE installs IMHO.

★★★★★ Ken Ali · Oct 13, 2023

Will evaluate for its usage as is/was designed

★☆☆☆☆ Joel Cross · Mar 19, 2025

It requires root and doesn't mention this in the description. Also, bloatware and ads!

★☆☆☆☆ Jeffrey “Sir Techmaster” Appleton · Nov 30, 2024

This app is such a rip-off it says that it installs Busy Box, but it doesn't install s***

★☆☆☆☆ Johnatan Torres · May 24, 2023

Ads on the first 30 seconds after installing the app... The worst

★☆☆☆☆ Chris Williams · Jun 22, 2025

I've used busy box before without any problem. This version does not allow me to install the commands to do that system/bin or system /xbin. And I also paid to remove the ads thinking that it would work, and now I can't get a refund.
