DevQS vs Geto
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
DevQS
Tired of banking and other financial apps whining that Developer Options is on? With DevQS, Developer Options can be toggled off then back on from the Quick Settings panel without resetting other settings. Long-clicking on any of the tiles will also open the Developer Options settings screen if the DEV toggle is on. IMPORTANT: There is no launcher icon nor activity. The tiles must be manually added to the Quick Settings panel. The app requires the permission WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS which can be granted using ADB. adb shell pm grant me.velc.devqs android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Geto
The only reason I created this app is to turn off that damn Developer Options when using a banking app. The only annoying thing about it is you have to go to the Settings app. When you turn off that switch button, your Developer Options configurations will be reset to default. The good thing is that when you modify your settings through its Shared Preferences, you won't lose all your settings once the Developer Options are modified. With Shizuku, you can grant this app with android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS in order for it to modify your Settings values.
