About Debug Mode Widget

Debug Mode Widget is a minimal home screen widget that shows your Android debug settings at a glance — no need to dig through menus.

Place the widget on your home screen to instantly see:

• USB Debugging — on or off

• Wireless Debugging — on or off (Android 11+ only)

• Running Services shortcut — opens the Running Services screen directly

Tap any status row to jump straight to Developer Options. Tap Running Services to open that screen without navigating through menus. Tap the refresh button to re-read the current state without leaving your home screen.

The app has no launcher icon. It lives entirely as a home screen widget — no background processes, no notifications, no internet permission, no tracking of any kind.

To use: long-press your home screen, choose Widgets, find Debug Mode, and drag it to place.

What's new in 1.1.2

Build fix only: the v1.1.1 attempt to strip AGP's dependency metadata signing block used the wrong Gradle property name and had no effect, so the released APK still failed F-Droid's scanner. This release moves the setting into the dependenciesInfo DSL, verified to remove the block. No user-visible changes.

How to install Debug Mode Widget

  1. Tap Download — the app's official page on F-Droid opens.
  2. Install it with the F-Droid app (recommended, for automatic updates), or use the download button on that page.
  3. If Android asks, allow the F-Droid app or your browser to install apps, then tap Install.
  4. Open Debug Mode Widget from your app drawer.
