User Reviews

Users note that while the app can enable Linux on Android and can be easy to set up with Termux/RealVNC, recurring issues overshadow the experience. The main problems are billing failures and poor support, maintenance gaps with abandonment/outdated status, frequent install/compatibility failures for mods, and reliance on external tools that limit standalone use (including non-root device constraints) along with ads traffic.

Pros

Easy setup to run Linux on Android using Termux and RealVNC
Supports portable Linux environments and distros (e.g., Kali tool) on Android
Good documentation that helps fix common issues and workflows
Positive experiences when Linux on Android works and users enjoy the concept (Linux Loves You)

Cons

Billing and subscription problems: duplicate charges, activation issues, refunds, and poor support response
App appears abandoned or outdated: discontinued, lack of maintenance, manual installation required
Frequent installation/compatibility problems with mods/OSs: downloads fail, installations are unsuccessful, and some distros don’t install
Relies on external apps and wrappers (Termux, VNC) and may not work on non-root devices or require root—limiting standalone usability
