About Loophole
Loophole is a one-tap Quick Settings toggle for Android Developer Options. If you're an Android developer, Developer Options is basically always on. But a lot of banking and fintech apps treat that as a red flag and refuse to open, or silently degrade, while it's enabled -- even though you're not doing anything shady, you're just building. The normal fix is: open Settings, find Developer Options, toggle it off, open your banking app, then remember to turn it back on later. Loophole turns that into one tap from the notification shade.
Privacy and F-Droid
F-Droid builds Loophole from its published source code and flags anti-features such as ads, tracking or reliance on non-free services.
