Still usable < Android 14, but no longer recommended. See also [[/en/phone/apps/lsposed]], which is required to use this app.</alert>
|
|
|
|
Really simple to use privacy manager for Android 6.0 Marshmallow and later
|
|
(successor of XPrivacy).
|
|
|
|
Revoking Android permissions from apps often let apps crash or malfunction.
|
|
XPrivacyLua solves this by feeding apps fake data instead of real data.

|
===== Download and install apk =====
|
|
|
|
Install XPrivacyLua via [[en:phone:apps:f-droid|F-Droid]] - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.faircode.xlua/.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===== Enable module =====
|
|
|
|
You may receive a notification after the installation. Enable the module in [[en:phone:apps:lsposed|LSPosed]] and enable any app you want to give fake data too. Restart your device.
|
|
|
|
<alert type="danger" icon="fa fa-warning">Each new app installation must be manually activated in LSPosed! Do not forget this!</alert>
|
|
|
|
|
|
===== Settings =====
|
|
|
|
Click on the burger (top left) and mark ''Notify on new apps'' and ''Restrict new apps''.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===== Restrictions =====
|
|
|
|
Check https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacyLua#restrictions what every single restriction does. It depends on your application whether you need to disable the restriction if you want to share the real data.
|
|
|
|
An example with a browser (Iceraven):
|
|
|
|
{{:en:phone:apps:screenshot_20220219-180425_xprivacylua.png?direct&200|}}
|
|
|
|
''Get applications'' is for example sharing to KDE connect, Messenger etc..
|
|
|
|
''Read clipboard'' to copy and paste text, to search for something or similar.
|
|
|
|
You can easily test it by selecting ''Read clipboard'' and copy and paste something into the restricted application. The output should be ''Private''.
