Description

Verify proper root (superuser or su) access is configured and working using Root Checker! Free, fast, easy, and used on over 50 million Android devices, Root Checker shows the user whether or not root (superuser) access is properly installed and working.

This application provides even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator, superuser, or su) access. The application provides a very simple user interface that easily notifies the user whether or not they have properly setup root (superuser) access.

*Feel free to email me with any questions. I always reply!*

This application will test the device for root (superuser) access using a very simple, quick, and reliable method that has been successful for over 50 million Android devices. The su binary is the most common binary used on Android devices to grant and manage root (superuser) access. Root Checker will check and verify that the su binary is located in a common standard location on the device. In addition, Root Checker will verify whether the su binary is properly functioning in granting root (superuser) access.

Many times users experience issues along the path of installing, configuring, and gaining root access or uninstalling and removing root access. For some users the process can seem complex while for others the process can seem simple. Regardless of the user's technical skill set, Root Checker, will quickly and correctly verify whether or not root access is 100% functioning. The process of confirming root access is sometimes known by other terms such as, gaining superuser access or gaining administrator access. Root Checker covers all these terms as they relate to one core function, being able to execute commands through the su binary with root access.

If the Superuser management applications (SuperSU, Superuser, etc.) are installed and working properly, these applications will prompt the user to accept or deny the root access request from Root Checker. Accepting the request will allow Root Checker to check for and confirm root access. Denying the request will result in Root Checker reporting no root access.

For scenarios when there is concern somebody else might have installed root access on the device, Root Checker can validate whether root access is installed providing more insight and knowledge.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★I'll give this app a complete star from the bottom of my heart. Because, this app is very helpful as you can see more than a thousands review but others didn't realize this app is very helpful. I just want to try this app later because for me this app is helpful. And more than a thousand and hundreds review in this app. Thank you!!😘.... And i just want to congratulate the developer😍 Go9d Job👍👍
5 ★Works well on HTC One M8 running LineageOs 17.1 and Majisk SU. I only installed to check then deleted straight after.
3 ★Not amazing, not accurate. I run android 7.1.2 Lineage OS 14.1. I have full root permissions and access however, this app says I do not. I have used root several times and use a theming engine that requires root.
5 ★Assuming it works, it works. And please, change the "phone not rooted" message, people don't seem to understand "root not properly installed".
5 ★I don't know why people are rating it 1, 2,3 stars If your phone is rooted, then it will show you that its rooted else it will not show that it is rooted. Now many people are saying that this app just tells whether the phone is rooted or not and dont install this app My reply to them is that this apps name is also Root Checker and this app is just made for checking root access and it is necessary for some advanced users to check root access and it works fine So dont rate if you dont know its use
5 ★Literally does what its name says, not sure what's the fuss some people here is complaining about. People who don't even know what root is, is ruining the rating of the app with 1 star.
3 ★I recently updated root checker with all in one bundle for money and when I reapened the app, and I still see advertisements and its not advanced root checker, so what did I waste my money on exactly??? 😤 I want my money back or the issue to be fixed now, and when I go to upgrade it again it says that there was an error, I already purchased it
1 ★Warning!!!! Scam wanting payment for upgrade, why should I pay for something that doesn't work. Once you install it tells you sorry root access was not installed properly on your device. There's no other way but to buy the upgrade. Shame haha
1 ★Proper installation was done, but the error kept coming that it wasn't installed correctly. Asking for upgrade when the normal wouldn't work. Uninstall in the next minute. Waste.
5 ★Good app. Strangely, this free version has been updated fairly recently, yet the pro version hasn't been updated since 2015 and also lacks features that are in the free version, e.g rankings
1 ★How many ads do you want me to view? I got ad while waiting for an ad... And then got an ad after that. This is ridiculous and a sad cash grab. Go get one of the 10.000 other root validaters. This one is bad.
1 ★The free up showed phone as rooted.. i checked on a term emulator as well as other apps and the phone is not. Default settings for a driod 9 do not have the phone rooted. The free app then asks you to upgreade to the paid app for details.. its false advertising.
