About Shelter

Install/cline apps to suit your needs.

Discover Shelter, the revolutionary Free and Open-Source (FOSS) application that harnesses Android's "Work Profile" feature to create a secure, isolated space for your apps. With Shelter, you can effortlessly install or clone applications, ensuring your personal data remains protected and separate from potentially intrusive software.

Shelter stands out from the crowd with its commitment to user privacy. Unlike many other apps, it comes completely free of advertisements, statistics, or tracking SDKs. The entire source code is available for public scrutiny, licensed under WTFPL, and can be found on the official repository or its mirror.

Key features of Shelter include:

App Isolation: Run applications in a protected environment, preventing access to your personal data.

App Freezing: Disable resource-heavy or infrequently used apps to optimize device performance.

Multiple Accounts: Clone apps to use two accounts on a single device, perfect for separating work and personal profiles.

Shelter requires Device Admin permissions to function effectively. For those concerned about security, the open-source nature of the app allows for code auditing and self-compilation.

While Shelter provides robust isolation, it's important to note that it's not a complete sandbox solution. It cannot protect against system-level security vulnerabilities or potential backdoors in your Android system or device firmware.

Due to Android system limitations, Shelter can only create one work profile per device and cannot coexist with other work profile management apps.

Experience the power of app isolation with Shelter – download now and take control of your digital privacy!

Why not use Island by OasisFeng, the creator of Greenify?

Shelter is an open-source alternative to Island, which isn't FOSS and includes non-free SDKs. The Shelter was created as a free, open-source option.

Why does Shelter always run in the background?

Try removing Shelter from "Recent Apps" after closing. If it persists in notifications and drains the battery, you may have encountered a bug. Please report it.

How do I uninstall Shelter from my device?

Remove your work profile in Settings > Accounts, remove Shelter from Device Admin apps, and then uninstall normally from your app list.

If I encounter bugs, how do I report them?
