A Zygisk module for rooted Android devices that detaches installed apps from the Play Store by hooking libbinder, preventing Play Store from force-updating apps against the user's auto-update preferences. It ships with a CLI tool and supports KernelSU and Magisk setups.
Use cases
- stop Play Store from force-updating specific apps
- keep an app pinned to an older version despite Play Store auto-update policy
- detach apps from Play Store on a rooted Android device
- automatically detach a list of apps when flashing a Magisk module
- manage detached apps without using the terminal via companion app or WebUI
When to choose
- you have a rooted Android device with Zygisk enabled (Magisk or KernelSU) and want to block Play Store auto-updates for specific apps
- you want changes applied immediately without rebooting
- you prefer a CLI, companion app, or KernelSU WebUI to select apps to detach
When to avoid
- your device is not rooted or lacks Zygisk support
- you want a non-root solution to control app updates
- you are on iOS or a desktop platform
