Stellar is a deeply customized fork of Shizuku, an Android framework that lets apps use system-level APIs via ADB wireless debugging or Root privileges without needing root themselves. It adds a fine-grained multi-permission system, boot-time auto-start, dual-process mutual watchdogs, and a Shizuku compatibility layer.

Use cases

• use system-level android apis without rooting my phone
• grant runtime permissions to other apps via adb
• run privileged shell processes from an android app
• start a privileged service automatically on boot
• shizuku alternative with finer permission control
• fix shizuku not working on mediatek devices

When to choose

• you need Shizuku-like privileged API access with granular permission management
• you want auto-start on boot or watchdog-protected service persistence
• you rely on deprecated Shizuku APIs like newProcess() or runtime permission granting
• your device is MediaTek and stock Shizuku fails

When to avoid

• you want the official, widely-adopted Shizuku with maximal ecosystem support
• you need rish shell tool or Zygisk-Sui support, which Stellar removed
• you prefer minimal, upstream-maintained tooling over a customized fork
