I came across Shizuku as a root alternative, and while it’s been great at freezing apps, I want to disable certain receivers, services, and SDKs from apps.

Blocker is supposed to do this, but even with Shizuku permission, it does nothing when I try to disable any app components.

Does this actually work, or is root required? If root is needed, are there any alternatives that work with Shizuku?

    Yeah I’ve always wanted to try but my phones haven’t been very root friendly either. I think maybe next phone I will do research and give it a try. Not sure what I’d do it for other than more privacy though 😅
