What is Greenify?
Greenify is an Android application that helps improve your phone’s performance and battery life by putting background apps into hibernation. This prevents those apps from running in the background when not in use, reducing battery drain and improving overall speed.
Greenify works on both rooted and non-rooted devices, though certain advanced features such as automatic hibernation and system app control require either root access or ADB permissions.
Features of Greenify
- Hibernate background apps to save battery
- Improve phone speed and responsiveness
- Supports both rooted and non-rooted phones
- Extra automation features available for rooted or ADB-enabled devices
- Lightweight and does not collect personal data
- Free to use
Does Greenify Require Root?
Greenify can work without root access, but some features are limited. Here’s a comparison:
| Feature | Without Root | With Root or ADB |
|---|---|---|
| Manual hibernation | Yes | Yes |
| Auto-hibernation (background) | No | Yes |
| Hibernating system apps | No | Yes |
| Full automation | Limited | Full control |
For the best experience and full automation, root access or ADB setup is recommended.

Before installing Greenify, make sure your device meets the following:
- Android phone (rooted or non-rooted)
