About DevSwitch

DevSwitch turns Developer options, USB debugging and Wireless debugging on and off from a single screen. Each switch also has a Quick Settings tile, so you do not have to dig through the Settings app.

It writes the same system settings that Android's own Settings app does, so the system reacts at once. For example, adbd starts or stops, and the Developer options screen appears or disappears. It suits developers and testers who switch debugging often.

Strengths

Three Quick Settings tiles for fast toggling
Changes take effect immediately
Small, single-purpose app

Limitations

Small project with few contributors
No GitHub releases; installed through F-Droid or built from source
