About
Inure is an Android application package manager irrespective of whether they're installed or not, it can scan through any app's internal components and modify them on the go. It also packs a nice looking Terminal Emulator, Usage Stats, Split/APK Installer and various other tools and many of them are waiting to be implemented as well. On top of that, Inure's all functionalities been made to work with both Root and Shizuku modes.
Inure's development was started as an independent learning project which later has become one of the most ambitious and intuitive Android apps developed by a single person and is based 100% on custom UI APIs developed to be used only in this app with its own native theme engine, crash handler, image renderer and a beautiful animation framework.
Along with it own UI perks, Inure also supports dynamic Material You colors with dedicated accent and theme color modes.
The app is in stable testing stage. You can join app's Telegram Group and get development related updates.
Inure also supports fully reproducible builds

Menus and Dialogs
Inure has 3 different styles of Menu and Dialogs type depending on how they're required, the popup type used for quick actions follows the user thumb on the screen, the modal dialog is used to adjust panel level preferences and chip style dialog for managing filter flags and tags. These three work together to refine a good level of UX and UI without overloading the user with a lot of options.

WeakReferenceanywhere in the project.- my first Android project was full of them :’)

- Inure is the first-ever Android app to implement both panel-level and app-level preferences architecture.
- All preferences provide real-time feedback with no loading screens.
- Inure is accessible to visually challenged users.
- The concept of Inure was first envisioned in 2018, however the development only began properly in the third quarter of 2021.
- During the interim, I developed three mini apps to test and validate its potential:
- Positional

How Shizuku is used
Can install, uninstall, freeze, force stop and debloat apps plus manage permissions and battery rules via `Shizuku`.
This is an AI-assisted analysis of Shizuku-related usages in the app's public source code. It is best effort, so it may not catch every single usage.
How this app uses Shizuku
Inure uses Shizuku to manage apps without system signatures, running privileged package, activity and device commands through its Shizuku service.
- Install apps silently: APKs chosen for single or batch install are written to a system install session and committed through Shizuku, with options for replacing existing apps, granting permissions and allowing downgrades.
- Uninstall apps fully: single apps and batch selections are removed with the
pm uninstallshell command through Shizuku, including system apps kept with data. - Freeze and unfreeze apps: single or batch enable and disable toggles are applied with
pm enableandpm disableshell commands and the system package manager enable setting through Shizuku. - Debloat system apps: bloatware lists can be uninstalled, disabled or restored with
pm uninstall,pm disableandpm install-existingplus enable through Shizuku. - Force stop apps: single and batch force stop actions run
am force-stopthrough Shizuku. - Clear app cache: cache for a selected app is cleared with the
pm clear --cache-onlyshell command through Shizuku. - Control battery optimization: adding or removing apps from Doze whitelists uses the
dumpsys deviceidle whitelistshell command through Shizuku. - Manage app operations: privacy and system operations are read with
appops getand changed withappops setthrough Shizuku. - Grant and revoke permissions: runtime permission switches are applied with the
pm grantandpm revokeshell commands through Shizuku. - Launch activities: hidden or exported app components are started with the
am startshell command through Shizuku. - View system users: the user list for install and uninstall targeting is read with
pm list usersthrough Shizuku.

Notable details
Installs fall back to the normal package installer flow when Shizuku is denied or unavailable. Cache clearing through Shizuku warns and fails unless Shizuku is running with elevated privileges.
