BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind. It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded systems. To create a working system, just add some device nodes in /dev, a few configuration files in /etc, and a Linux kernel.
BusyBox is maintained by Denys Vlasenko, and licensed under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE version 2.

Bombards you with advertisements. Good thing the next app I'm installing is AdAway! edit: as a developer, I totally get that it's a revenue stream - but the amount of ads this app has is still ridiculous. it makes for a terrible user experience.
L

by L####:
Reduce the number of ads in the free version for a few days at least. I wouldn't buy without testing and I can't test because of full screen ads at every command I'm trying to test. That's not so cool.

Terrible amount of ads Uninstalling... I know this is where you've get your source of income and I do understand the consideration However, the excessive amount of ads might be going to annoyed mosts users that will let them decide to use the other Busybox installer app I didn't said that you must have to remove the amount of ads you've inserted to this app, but to reduce it to the point that it will not going to disappoint nor frustate the user of your app when they're using it for several purposes..

The app doesn't work on my Pixel XL, Android 8.0.0, rooted. It just crashes when I go to start up the app. To be fair, the other BusyBox installer app doesn't seem to be able to install it, so I'm sure that it's a problem with the Pixel's 2 partitions or just the fact that I'm on Android O. I don't want to be too harsh because I'm sure your app has helped many people install BusyBox, but it didn't work for me. If there's a way to fix this, please let me know. Thanks!

The advertising has to go, no developer should be allowed to monetize their creations. If you provide a product or essential service like medical or law enforcement that advance Human Society, governments around the world should compensate you with all your basic needs, food, clothing, shelter, transportation, all other wants will be rewarded thru donations for gratitude for the service or product provided. Let us stop advertising globally and get away from this capitalist mentality.
