Full description

Andronix installs a full Linux system on your Android phone. No root needed ⚡️ WHAT'S NEW IN ANDRONIX 2.0 • A new installer: one command sets everything up, checks every download, and fixes itself for your phone. • Real desktops in Termux:X11, with sound and Firefox that plays video. • Modded OS 2.0: five ready-made desktops, styled and set up by Andronix. • A calmer, redesigned app: report a problem in a tap, and get notified when your install finishes. • Now in 7 languages. HOW IT WORKS Andronix runs Linux with PRoot inside Termux, so nothing on your phone is changed and no root is needed. Pick a distro and a desktop in the app, copy the command, and paste it into Termux. The installer does the rest. FREE LINUX DISTROS Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Debian 13, Kali, Fedora, Arch, Manjaro, Alpine and Void, with your choice of desktop: XFCE, LXQt, MATE or KDE Plasma (KDE on Ubuntu, Debian and Kali). All free, no ads. MODDED OS 2.0 Ready-made desktops, styled and tuned by Andronix: Ubuntu XFCE, Ubuntu KDE, Debian XFCE, Manjaro XFCE and Kali XFCE. Buy one edition, or get the Modded Pass for all five, with updates included. If you bought a Classic Modded OS before, it stays yours to install. ANDRONIX PREMIUM Early access to new editions and beta installers, higher download limits, a spot on the supporter wall, and a lower price on the Modded Pass. It's also the best way to support Andronix. WHAT YOU CAN DO Browse, code, learn Linux, run servers and tools: anything that doesn't need the full Linux kernel. Some things are limited by Android itself (for example, most pen-testing tools that need raw network access). REQUIREMENTS • Android 7.0 or newer. • Termux from F-Droid or GitHub (the app links you to it). • ARM64, ARM, x86_64 or x86. • On phones with a kernel older than 4.8 (many Android 8 and 9 phones), the command line works but desktops don't. OPEN SOURCE The Andronix installer and all the free distros are open source on GitHub. The app and Modded OS are how we keep the project going.

What's new

Andronix 10.0.7 • After a command-line install, the app shows the command to start your distro, with a Copy button • Report a problem fills in your account's email when you're signed in • 32-bit phones are no longer offered Fedora or Manjaro, which don't run on them • On a Chromebook, the Help tab opens the docs in Chrome and offers more help
