Phoenix vs SimpleAppDowngrader [ROOT]
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Phoenix
Reboot your phone in a given interval on a specific time and start a specific application after reboot. The idea is to restart Android and an application periodically to clean up cache and memory leaks if the application has to run over a long time. And if you don't need to restart an application, still this can help to close memory leaks. No background services - reboot is scheduled by system AlarmManager. Before reboot is applied, all apps get a shutdown call to save there data. This helps to prevent data loss! Configuration allows * selection of reboot interval from every day to every 30 days * selection of reboot time from midnight to 11pm * selection between hard reboot (complete restart) or soft/hot reboot (only restart apps) * selection if you want to start an app automatically after reboot * selection of any app to be started automatically after reboot
SimpleAppDowngrader [ROOT]
This uses androids pm tool to downgrade already installed apps to an older version. Root access is required. Credits: * topjohnwu for libsu
