InstallerX is a modern Android app installer that can replace the system's default package installer. It offers advanced installation options such as dialog or notification-based installs, auto-install, declaring the installer, multi-user installs, allowing test packages, downgrade installs, and auto-deleting APKs after installation.

Use cases

  • replace the default Android package installer on heavily customized OEM ROMs
  • install APKs via dialog or notification instead of full-screen system UI
  • automatically install APKs without user interaction
  • allow downgrade installations of apps
  • install apps for all user spaces on a device
  • auto-delete APK files after successful installation

When to choose

  • you use a Chinese OEM ROM whose built-in installer is limited or intrusive
  • you need advanced install options like downgrades, test packages, or multi-user installs
  • you want automated or non-interactive APK installation on Android 5.0-13

When to avoid

  • you need support for Android versions newer than 13
  • you require guaranteed long-term maintenance, as the license and open-source status may change
  • you are on iOS or non-Android platforms
