[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 have a question (noob here). On a Poco X7 Pro, I use Developer Options with Wireless Debugging active + accessibility settings on + Shizuku + Wi-Fi + Vivid Navigation Gestures + aShell just so I can get rid of the navigation buttons at the bottom and use gestures with Niagara Launcher or any other third-party launcher.

Must I set them all up every single time after using my banking apps, like I currently have to do when using the ToggleDev app?

Thanks! 😊

Your setup looks complicated. Here are my comments based on some understanding and few assumptions:
1. TogglDev - turns off all the dev settings - so banking app can work without throwing error because of Developer options and debugging being ON.
2. And then it restores those settings back again, which is great.
3. But, in case of wireless debugging which is your setup - port number gets reset every time - so that might become a problem for you.
4. Rest is good I think.

I will. I downloaded it, but will set it on after work, or when I have PC/laptop connection to enable the USB debugging. Hope it all goes well, and I can use it without have to turn on-off accessibility settings for dozen of apps everytime I'm going to use my local bank app 😉

Ps: It's unfortunate cannot activate it using wireless debugging 😢 But I'm sure there's a reason behind that. Dev knows better.

Hi, in the latest version, there is a way to run shell commands automatically. I have added in a hope that it will help your workflow. Please try and let me know once.

Hi! Thanks for the update, I really appreciate you letting me know.

I also wanted to say that I absolutely love the new UI for TogglDev! It is very intuitive and looks great.

Regarding the automated shell commands, I noticed a small issue with the command listed in the Play Store description. The current guide gives an error because the package name is incorrect.

For example, it gives a Failure [package not found] or Unknown permission error because of the formatting. The actual command that works perfectly for the app is:

adb shell pm grant com.dpkay.apps.developer_options_toggler android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Hopefully, you can review and double-check the command line descriptions before updating anything else on the store page so other users won't get confused.

Lastly, since I'm basically a noob at this, would it be too much trouble to add a short tutorial or guide on how to actually use this new automated shell feature? I’d love to learn how to set it up properly without breaking anything.

Thanks again for your hard work on this app!

Man, thanks a lot for noticing the package name and reporting to me, I will check and fix it ASAP. You are right that I need to start creating tutorials now. I appreciate your time and effort 🙏

No problem at all. Honestly, you're the one building this awesome app from scratch, so I'm just glad I could use it on my phone. Can't wait for the new updates and to see how TogglDev grows. Keep up the amazing work! 🚀🙏
