APatch patches the Android kernel and system as a kernel-based root solution, offering a method for device-level modifications.
About APatch
APatch is an open-source, kernel-based root solution for Android devices. It patches the Android kernel and system to support device-level modifications. It supports APM modules, which are similar to Magisk modules, and KPM modules, which can inject code into the kernel. APatch relies on KernelPatch for its core, and its UI and APModule source code are derived from KernelSU. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0.
The project only supports the ARM64 architecture and Android kernel versions 3.18 to 6.12. Support for Samsung devices with security protection is listed as planned, not available. The project's documentation is described as incomplete and subject to change. The SuperKey has higher privileges than root access, and weak or compromised keys can lead to unauthorized control of the device.
