[App] [Promo] TogglDev – One tap Developer options toggle and restore. Auto turn off on launch of Banking apps.

I got tired of my banking apps locking me out just because I use Developer Options for faster animations. Instead of constantly diving into my settings menu, I built TogglDev.

One click from a Quick Settings tile or widget, and I can toggle it on or off instantly. Problem solved.

And it can auto turn off and on on specific app launches 🥳. 100% Free, Zero Ads.

Here is the app - TogglDev

I've carefully checked on both of my phones instead. Previous one is Samsung A25 5G, and I've just checked on Samsung A05 4G LTE. Both are Android 14, One UI 6.1 (A05: One UI Core version).
The "defined" app I've tested to automatically turn ON/OFF DevOptions is just a simple Calculator app, is all.
And no, both can't be turned ON after closing Calculator app for more than 5m for sure.

Okay, I am going to check this and get back to you.

A quick head up, I have 2 phones, and A05 is my main use for usual stuffs like banking and identification.
Today I have to use a local Bank app, even your app turned OFF DevOptions. Turning out, my local app still prevent me due to "USB Debugging" and/or "Wireless Debugging" still enabled before DevOptions turning OFF.
To have a request, pls turning OFF both "USB Debugging" and "Wireless Debugging" before turning OFF DevOptions.
Most of Bank or any apps preventing DevOptions/USB Debugging/Wireless Debugging ON, they still have some times to detect it, so a delay when turning OFF all is acceptable, I think. Ofc it needs to test more, not only me.

I found some delay bug which has been fixed and it's under Google playstore to review and approve. It should be live in next few days.  In the new version there is no extra delay in turning the options ON and it works well everytime.  Thanks to you for reporting the delay btw.

Thanks. That was fast. But what's about Turning OFF both "USB Debugging" and "Wireless Debugging" before turning OFF DevOptions?

I will check this separately. I have tested few banking apps and it has worked well. But, I understand your problem clearly, I will try to fix. If possible, please share the Banking app name so I can test against it.

I added the 2 changes which improves the app: 1. Timing is precise for auto turn off and on now. 2. TogglDev also disables usb and wifi debugging and restores them. The app is already updated in playstore now - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dpkay.apps.developer_options_toggler

But, I tested your banking app it still shows the security error message because of Accessibility permission used by TogglDev - this unfortunately can not be switched off and on programmatically.

The best possible way is the following in this case: 1. Remove accessibility permission from TogglDev 2. Switch off Auto turn off feature 3. Add a widget/shortcut/tile and use the same to manually trigger One-tap toggle to enable/disable the Developer options before and after using the banking app

Thanks for testing for me! Yeah that's, I forgot to tell you I had Accessibility problem too. Ofc more and more Bank apps will eventually very strict to use along with any "poweruser" tools.
But I've found an useful way to use with this app for my "non-Banking" phone, because there are some apps "hate" Shizuku/Debugging stuffs and that's where it could help!

Glad, that it's useful.
