Product Information
What is Wifi adb?
Debug/test applications on your device wirelessly, without the need for cables. A must-have developer tool. WiFi ADB allows you to easily debug/test Android applications directly on your device via WiFi TCP/IP connection. No USB cable required. After enabling ADB over WiFi, connect your computer to the device, open the console, and run
`adb connect ip_address_of_the_device`
**Requirements**
This app is only for ROOTED devices. If you're unsure what this means or your device isn't rooted, do not install. Users must also grant this app su permissions when prompted.
**Features**
- Quickly enable/disable ADB connections over WiFi TCP/IP
- Automatically enable ADB over WiFi on configured known SSIDs
- Upon activation, adds a persistent notification to remind users that ADB over WiFi is active, with an option to manually disable it
- App icon can be placed in the status bar for quick access (better than a home screen widget, IMO)
- Temporarily extends screen-off timeout. Nine times out of ten, this is what users want when developing and testing Android apps on their devices. The original screen timeout is restored once ADB over WiFi is disabled.
- Temporarily locks WiFi to prevent it from entering sleep mode (effectiveness varies by device and Android version)
- Functions as a Tasker/Locale plugin, allowing automatic toggling of WiFi ADB based on other conditions
**Pro Tips**
- If your development machine runs Unix/Linux or Mac, open the console and run:
`while true; do adb connect phone_ip_address; sleep 15; done`
This one-liner automatically reconnects to the ADB daemon on your phone if the link drops for any reason.
- If you control the WiFi router, configure it to assign the same IP address to your phone every time. Then assign a local DNS hostname to that IP address, so you won’t have to type a frequently changing IP address in the console.
