About Autostarts

The Original Autostarts Manager. Keep control over your phone: See what applications do behind your back.

I will show you all the apps that run automatically when you turn on your phone, and on any of the 190+ events that Android triggers in the background. Root users can disable unwanted autostarts and speed up their phone.

Note: Root-Access *is* required to make changes. Otherwise, this application will be read-only.

Note: The new "all device features" superuser permission indicates root access is used; this will be required for all root apps in the future. You will still be asked to confirm root access on an individual basis. See: https://plus.google.com/103583939320326217147/posts/T9xnMJEnzf1

Still crashes after latest update. App cannot handle a large number of installed apps. Worked on stock ROM with stock apps, but once you start installing apps and the count goes up, app gives up.

Yay it works again. This is the only startup manager that has ever worked properly for me... and it stopped working when I got a Pixel XL. I think the last update fixed it.

This app has some incompatibility with the security app "Cerberus". It crashes when reading the receivers list in every device where Cerberus is installed. Please fix that dev, your app is too good to be crippled by such a bug.

LG G4. I have used this app in the past with other phones but it seems to be broken with my G4 running Android 5.1. I grant it SU permission but it spits back a toast about not having SU permissions when I try to disable an app. Please fix.

Every rooted android needs this app. Lets you disable apps from starting up & running in background. works w/ system apps. It's like msconfig from Windows for android

Not working :/ Requests SU, but then after a while white popup appears without any text and does not disable item. Please fix.

Doesn't work! Brand-new VS986 (LG G4),with root access running 5.1. Autostarts has been given root permissions but fails to see root and then does not work at all. I've reached out to the dev, but as it stands this is 100% useless.

Very powerful one. Just amazing and really required to save battery. Some improvements necessary: 1. Sort by disabled/enabled 2. Keep the information/help message that appears after clicking "i", for a longer duration. It goes off quickly and gives no time to read the full information. 3. Provide an easy mode for "one click disable" for all events.

X70%

I really like this application when it works to disable event conditions that start apps. Unfortunately it no longer detects root on my Galaxy S7 with systemless root su 2.71 or 2.68. Please make this compatible.

R70%
by R####:

I cant use this anymore because it doesn't wait long enough after requesting root for superuser to catch and grant the request. Huge shame.

Overall, great app to have and use. lately i'm having a little problem. I'm using an HTC One M9 and its rooted but when I got to disable something. the app isn't letting me. I guess it is telling me that I don't have root when I know I do. has anyone experienced this lately?

N70%
by N####:

When I try to disable an app I get a blank white box with no details inside it and it doesn't disable anything. 1-star until fixed BC it's useless now (Galaxy S6 Edge+root)

For Lollipop & below, wish it was updated to work on Marshmallow tho. Still 5 star even though I can't use it

W70%
by W####:

Worked fine on my HTC One and Oneplus One. But not on my Oneplus 2. Gives me the error "Unable to change state on ..." On whatever app I try to disable. And yes I'm rooted and it is allowed to gain root.

Two UI issues for me. First, there doesn't seem to be any way to sort events alphabetically. Secondly, the little 'i' buttons are very small, and right next to the invisible scroll bar (especially so in 'By Application' view with one app. expanded). This means it's hard to hit the 'i' and very easy to hit the scroll bar by mistake, and jump to somewhere completely different in the long list! Dev., you could make the 'i' nearly 2x as big and it would still fit in the existing UI, and would help! Thanks!

It's the best software of its kind, but not working anymore under the latest Samsung lollipop on a Galaxy S6. Please update.

What more is there to say, it turns off apps from running. It's a great app.

I've used this app for a while after buying it and it worked perfectly. With Android 6 (MM) it doesn't work since it can't see root for some reason, rendering the app useless. Please help developer :(

Worked prior to new phone. Is rooted but error showed that phone isn't rooted. Running 5.1.1.

Used to be a great app, so much so that I have recommended it to lots of people. Too bad it doesn't work on a firmware that's over a year old.
