A fully client-side Android dashboard that communicates with a physical device over USB via the WebUSB API.
No backend, no companion app, no native binaries — just a browser tab.
Built with React 19 and Material 3.
Plug in your Android device with USB debugging enabled, click connect, and the browser's USB picker handles the rest. YAADU authenticates using standard RSA-2048 ADB key exchange — no adb binary required on your machine.
View detailed device information: brand, model, OS version, battery stats, screen resolution, RAM, storage, WiFi details, and active sensors. Memory usage is visualized with a progress ring.
Browse user-installed apps with live name resolution. Force stop, clear data, uninstall, or disable/enable apps directly from the browser. Drag-and-drop APK files to sideload them onto the device.
Scan the device camera folder and download individual files or create a ZIP archive of selected media. Supports cancellation mid-backup.
Adjust animation speed, toggle night mode, and change display density (DPI) through settings and wm shell commands.

npm run preview| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Browser | Chrome 89+ or Edge 89+ on Desktop (macOS / Windows / Linux) |
| USB Debugging | Enabled in Developer Options on the Android device |
| Secure Context | Served from localhost or HTTPS (WebUSB requirement) |
| ADB port conflict | Stop any local adb server first: adb kill-server |
- "No devices found" in picker — Ensure USB debugging is enabled and the cable supports data (not charge-only).
- "Allow USB Debugging?" never appears — Run
adb kill-serveron your host and retry. - Repeated authorization prompts — Open DevTools console and run
localStorage.removeItem("yaadu:adb-private-key"), then reconnect. - Permission denied errors — YAADU runs as the
shelluser; some operations (e.g. uninstalling system apps) require root.
