Bugjaeger tries to give you the expert tools used by Android developers for better control and deep understanding of your Android device.

If you don't know what's ADB and how to enable USB debugging this tool is not for you.

Please only rate if you've been able to connect to an Android device and actually use this tool.

Bugs can happen. Please report technical issues directly to my email - [email protected]. I'll try to resolve them as soon as possible. I won't respond to reviews that report technical issues anymore.

If you're an Android power user developer geek or hacker this app might be something for you.

Inspecting Android device internals running shell scripts checking logs making screenshots inspecting backup files and many more tasks that are normally done on your laptop can now be performed directly between 2 mobile devices.

This app works as sort of Android to Android ADB (Android Debug Bridge) - it offers some features similar to ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Android Device Monitor but instead of running on your development machine it runs directly on your Android device.

You connect your target device through USB OTG cable or through wifi and you'll be able to play around with the device.

ADB protocol is supported also by Android devices other than phones & tablets. That means that you should also be able to control your Android TV Wear OS watch or even Raspberry Pi with Android Things OS.


Main features
- running custom shell scripts on target device
- remote interactive shell
- reading filtering and exporting device logs (logcat)
- pull APK files
- creating and restoring backups inspecting and extracting content of backup files
- capturing screenshots
- performing various commands for controlling your device (rebooting going to bootloader rotating screen killing running apps ...)
- uninstalling and installing packages checking various details about installed apps
- copying apps between phones
- monitoring the processes showing additional information related to processes killing processes
- showing various details about Android version(e.g. SDK version Android ID..) Linux kernel cpu abi display
- showing battery details (like e.g. temperature health technology voltage..)
- file management - pushing and pulling files from device browsing the file system
- search and connection to Android devices on your network that configured adbd to listen on port 5555
- reading bootloader variables & info via fastboot protocol (you can for example dump some hw info security state or if the device was tampered)

For some tricks and examples of what you can do see

For starting a youtube video or url in browser add following custom command (or paste this into shell) in the first tab

am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxKdFlf4Y7E"

Requirements
- The target phone must enable USB debugging in Developer options and authorise the development device
- For fastboot functionality to work the connected devices bootloader has to support fastboot protocol (also note that the amount and type of information that can be displayed via fastboot will vary between different devices and on some devices the 'fastboot oem' command for getting info might not work)

Please note
This app uses the normal way of communicating with Android devices which requires authorisation.
The app does not bypass Android's security mechanisms or anything similar!
This also means the app won't be able to perform some privileged tasks on non-rooted devices (e.g. removing system apps).
