BusyBox is a software application that provides many standard Unix tools, much like the larger (but more capable) GNU Core Utilities. BusyBox is designed to be a small executable for use with the Linux kernel, which makes it ideal for use with embedded devices. It has been self-dubbed "The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux".

by U####:

but I thought the developer should be supported. It certainly makes life more convenient. For me, it's worked perfectly: Samsung Galaxy TabPRO SM-T900 12.2" with Android 5.1.1 (rooted, of course).

by Y####:

BusyBox is one of the original Android root applications. It has always worked well, been well thought out, and been an essential part of any Android rom. Great job Stephen for helping to bring this to Android and for helping to keep it updated!

I bought the pro version expecting "rsync" applet to be available. It wasn't by that's NOT the reason for poor rating. I mailed the developer nearly a month ago requesting him tu add it (as was promised in the app ) but neither has developer bothered to reply nor add. Probably this of the only one star rating but it deserves that for letting down on commitments

Z70%
by Z####:

This app does nothing but install the files needed that allow other root apps to work. That's it. Without the binaries, a lot of root apps will not function as intended if at all. Other apps install the binaries but this one is the best. Free, updated faster and more frequently than others and trusted. Must have for all rooted phones.

Nothing but 5 stars, absolutely flawless on my Nexus 5x, stock rooted, TWRP recovery, this is as easy as it comes!!! Still the Best BusyBox out there.I use it on every rooted device I own, Nexus 4,5,5x,6,6p, Samsung Note 2,3,4,5& Galaxy 2,3,4,5,6, Android One & One Plus & it's great on one of my favorites, The new Pixel XL. It allows me to run the best audio software out there and helps me to run the hell outta ANY Android device I choose. It's a MUST HAVE app to ANY Android enthusiast!!!!

I honestly have no idea what this app does but I've noticed that at least a couple of root apps don't seem to work properly without it. Only problem I've encountered is that auto update never ever works even though I have the option checked.

K70%
by K####:

I've used BusyBox Pro for a number of years Not designed for Android v6.x...with CM10, CM11 & CM12 and was truly never disappointed but, now that I have CM13, it doesn't seem to be compatible with it at all. I'm just hoping an update is released compatible with the Android v6.x (CM13). I haven't lost faith and will be keeping an eye out. Thank you for (hopefully) listening.

Use with care. Recent updates installing to a different default directory have caused significant problems with root-dependent apps.

If your like me you can't help but try multiple apps (more often testing the same ones a few times over) before deciding which is best. For me this is the one
