Features & Capabilities

Wakelock Detector [Root] is a powerful Android tool designed to identify apps that keep your phone awake and drain battery during idle times. Utilizing root access, it tracks both CPU and screen wakelocks, offering detailed insights into battery usage patterns. Users can sort apps by active running state, wakelock duration, or alphabetically, with active apps highlighted for quick identification.

By charging your phone and letting the app collect data over a period of 1-2 hours, Wakelock Detector helps pinpoint problematic applications that cause unexpected battery drain. This extension supports troubleshooting issues such as the screen staying on after timeout or waking up randomly. With user-focused features and ongoing performance enhancements, it’s a must-have utility for Android users seeking to optimize power management and prolong device battery life.

User Reviews

Wakelock Detector [Root] was once a reliable tool appreciated for detecting wakelocks in Android devices. However, multiple users report that on recent devices and Android versions, especially Android 8 and 9, the app frequently fails with 'failed to perform task' errors. Root permission handling, especially with Magisk, is problematic and detection features are inconsistent or absent. The app appears to be unmaintained, leading many users to consider it obsolete or abandonware.

Pros

The app used to work reliably and was considered a must-have for wakelock detection.
The free version of the app worked for some users before issues appeared.
Users appreciated the app’s concept and wanted to continue using it on new devices.

Cons

App frequently shows 'failed to perform task' errors and does not work on multiple devices and Android versions, especially Android 8, 9, and custom ROMs.
Root detection or requesting root permissions with Magisk often fails; app does not function properly on rooted devices despite granted permissions.
The app appears abandoned or not maintained since 2016, leading to incompatibility with newer devices and Android versions.
App functionality is inconsistent or non-existent, with lack of statistics or detection results as expected.
