Shizuku allows normal apps to use system APIs directly with elevated privileges using ADB on non-rooted devices. This list compiles a few apps that are known to make use of Shizuku's capabilities.

I'm also using an automated crawler that searches for new projects, making use of Shizuku across GitHub and several F-Droid repos. You can view the current auto-generated crawl report here: [TODO.md](pages/TODO.md).



--------------------



## Development libraries



### Core



* [Shizuku](https://github.com/RikkaApps/Shizuku) - Shizuku system server, API, and app `Apache-2.0` 

* [Shizuku-API](https://github.com/RikkaApps/Shizuku-API) - Developer documentation for Shizuku and Sui, including examples `Apache-2.0` 



### Filesystem

* [LintFile](https://github.com/lumkit/LintFile) - A file operation library with Shizuku, root, and regular filesystem backends `LGPL-2.1`

* [nextgenfs](https://github.com/rayshift/nextgenfs) - Shizuku compatible android/data access from Xamarin - AIDL library `MIT`

* [shizuku_apk_installer](https://github.com/re7gog/shizuku_apk_installer) - Flutter plugin for installing Android APKs using Shizuku API `MIT`



### Power



* [PowerAct](https://github.com/ryuunoakaihitomi/PowerAct) - An Android library that can manipulate power-related actions with just a few lines of code `Apache-2.0`



--------------------



## Similar projects



* [Dhizuku](https://github.com/iamr0s/Dhizuku) - Shizuku-inspired app that allows sharing DeviceOwner permissions to third-party apps `GPL-3.0`



--------------------



## Rish shell



`rish` is an Android executable (not an app) for interacting with a shell that runs on a high-elevated daemon process. 

For example, if Shizuku was launched using ADB privileges, then `rish` will also provide a shell that maintains ADB privileges.



To set up `rish`, open Shizuku, navigate to 'Use Shizuku in terminal apps', and follow the setup instructions. Please note that you need a basic understanding of shells, terminals, and essential commands to use this efficiently.



After `rish` is set up, you can use it together with any apps that support calling any shell script or executable, even if the app doesn't support Shizuku itself.



> [!NOTE] 

> Because `rish`'s location is not in `$PATH`, you may need to specify the path to the executable to launch it manually. If it is located in your current working directory, use `./rish` to launch it.



**Syntax:**



* `rish`: Launch the default interactive shell (uses /system/bin/sh)

* `rish exec /path/to/custom/shell`: Launch custom/alternative interactive shell

* `rish -c 'whoami'`: Execute shell command and exit once completed

* `echo 'whoami' | rish`: Read shell command from stdin, execute it, and exit once completed



> [!NOTE]

> `whoami` is used as an example and would return the name of the current shell user.



**Usage examples:**



* Open an interactive ADB shell using a terminal emulator like **Termux** directly on your device

* Trigger high-privilege ADB shell commands using automation apps like **Tasker** automatically in the background

  * Example: Command `rish -c 'reboot'` would reboot the device using Shizuku via the shell



The official rish documentation is available here: https://github.com/RikkaApps/Shizuku-API/blob/master/rish/README.md
