I’ve written this blog post about moving from rooted Samsung to a Pixel running GrapheneOS. It’s a list of every root tool that I used, with a note on whether I’ll miss it. I wrote it as a checklist for myself initially, and decided to add links and more comments and publish it. Turns out I don’t really need root, which truly surprised me.
Do you have any apps or tools that hold you back from leaving root?
Thanks, I fixed the link, but the old version still seems to be cached.

Another alternative I forgot to add to the post (and now I will) is this app: Force Stop Helper. It’s a simple list of apps with following features useful for my usecase:
Using this is not as convinient as Hail, but perfectly fine for apps that I don’t need to freeze multiple times a day. Sort of a middle ground between convenience and security.
