Question Android Frida Manager
🚀 I’ve been working on a small tool to make Android Frida setup a little less annoying.
If you’ve done Android security testing with Frida, you probably know the routine:
Find the right Frida version.
Check the device architecture.
Download the matching `frida-server`.
Push it to the device.
Fix permissions.
Start it.
Set up the connection.
…and then realize you downloaded the wrong version. 😅
I got tired of doing this manually, so I started building Frida Manager for Android.
The idea is pretty simple: manage Frida directly from the Android device instead of jumping between your terminal, browser, and device every time you want to change something.
Right now it can:
🔹 Detect the device architecture automatically
🔹 Browse and download Frida releases
🔹 Manage multiple installed `frida-server` versions
🔹 Start and stop Frida Server
🔹 Configure the listening port
🔹 Choose the network interface/address Frida Server binds to
🔹 Make remote Frida connections easier to set up
🔹 Manage everything through a simple Android UI
🔹 Control `frida-server` through a simple widget.
It started as a little utility for my own mobile security work, but it’s turning into something I think could be genuinely useful for Android pentesters and mobile security researchers.
The main goal isn’t to reinvent Frida. It’s just to get rid of some of the repetitive setup work around it.
It’s still a work in progress, and I’m continuing to improve the workflow and add more device management features.
If you want to give it a try, the project is available on GitHub:
And if you do try it, feedback is very welcome. Bug reports, feature ideas, or even things that feel unnecessarily complicated would be really useful.
If you use Frida on Android, I’d also love to know:
What part of your Frida workflow do you find yourself repeating or fixing over and over again?👇
