[DEV] I built RootRemote - The world's first Typing-Free Visual Shell Command Builder for Rooted Android (Jetpack Compose / 100% Offline)

Hey Reddit!

As a power user, I was completely sick and tired of using mobile virtual keyboards to type complex terminal commands on Termux. Typos, constant copy-pasting, and messy layouts drove me crazy. So, I decided to build my own solution: RootRemote.

It is a mobile-optimized Visual Shell Command Builder built natively using Kotlin & Jetpack Compose.

✨ Key Features:

  • Block-Assembly UI: Assemble complex commands (ls, chmod, pkill, setenforce, etc.) across 7 main categories via grid button panels. Just tap and build.
  • Intelligent Flow Bypass: System commands requiring no extra arguments (like reboot) automatically skip optional steps, allowing direct execution in 0.5 seconds.
  • High-Contrast Cyber Dark Theme: No more ugly Material 3 default purple tint. Pure pitch-black backgrounds with neon green accents for true cyberpunk/terminal aesthetics.
  • Real-Time Terminal Dump: Monitor background Superuser (su) shell outputs and error streams instantly via the dedicated Terminal tab.

🛡️ Security & Privacy (100% Safe):

  • Zero Internet Permission: This app does NOT request android.permission.INTERNET. It runs completely offline on your device. It is mathematically impossible to leak any system data or telemetry. Your root environment remains 100% safe.
  • Note: This is a closed-source personal project to protect my unique UI architecture and prevent copycats, but the strict lack of internet permission guarantees your absolute privacy.

⚙️ Requirements:

  • Android 6.0 (API 23) or higher.
  • Rooted via Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch.

I just released the v1.0.0-RC1 with native English (.en.apk) and Korean (.ko.apk) split support!
