Breaking Free from Technical Debt
Androidacy Module Manager (AMM) 3.0 has been rewritten completely from scratch, using no code or resources from previous versions. This decision wasn’t made lightly – by abandoning the old codebase, we’ve freed ourselves from the technical debt and persistent issues that had prevented meaningful upgrades in the past.
For those who’ve been around a while, you might remember when this tool was called Fox’s Magisk Module Manager before being transferred to Androidacy. The application has evolved significantly since then, and this rebuild represents its biggest transformation yet.
What AMM Does
At its core, Androidacy Module Manager helps users discover, manage, and install modules – small packages that plug into root frameworks like Magisk to provide or extend functionality and customize Android devices. Version 3.0 continues this mission with improved tools and capabilities.
Built with Modern Technology
The new version is built on Jetpack Compose with a custom installer backend written primarily in native Kotlin and C++. This delivers better performance across all supported root solutions including Magisk, KernelSU, and APatch.
Developer-Focused Improvements
AMM 3.0 introduces two new developer-friendly systems:
- A configuration file-based API that allows for creating fully native module configuration interfaces through simple file definitions, making it easier for developers to offer customization options.
- Separate streamlined APIs for common operations like downloading files, user interactions, and other functionality, reducing implementation complexity for module creators.
More detailed information about these developer APIs will be released after the update launches. Some of these APIs may be exclusive to Androidacy Module Manager, offering unique capabilities for developers who integrate with our platform.
First of Its Kind Features
The update includes a new module recommendation system – the first of its kind for Android module management. This helps users discover useful modules based on their current setup and needs.
The app also extends Androidacy’s CDN and security features to third-party repositories when added through the application, and offers exclusive native access to the Androidacy repository. This native access includes no wait times or CAPTCHAs for downloads for free users (please note, the 10@1Mbps limit still applies to keep things fair. We also reserve the right to block unfair use at our discretion).
Beta Testing Underway
The development team has completed the core features planned for launch and is now focused on testing. One more closed beta test is expected this week to iron out any last-minute issues before the public release.
Release Timeline
Barring unexpected complications, Androidacy Module Manager 3.0 is planned for release during the first week of March. More detailed information will be available as we approach the launch date.
We look forward to sharing this rebuilt module manager with the Android modding community and seeing how it enhances your customization experience.
