Legacy changelog

XPrivacy 2 will not be maintained anymore.

See for more information about XPrivacy 3 here.

Important

  • Xposed version 2.6+ is required
  • Updating from a version prior to 2.0.35 the main template will be reset to default
  • Updating from a version prior to 2.1.5 on demand restricting will be disabled until the update is completed
  • Updating from a version prior to 2.1.8 you will need to setup the IPC restrictions again
  • Updating from a version prior to 2.1.21 you will need to setup the IPC restrictions again, except for Reflection
  • From version 2.0.29 dangerous functions need to be restricted manually (manually includes the template, if defined to do so)
  • From version 2.1.20 batch operations (toggle restrictions for multiple applications) require a pro license
    • I have put about 2000 hours into developing and supporting XPrivacy so far. The reason for accepting donations is to keep myself motivated to keep doing this. Unfortunately the number of donations is quite low and thus not very motivating. So, don't start complaining about this change, but instead think about supporting this huge project. You can still fully protect your privacy with all the free features of XPrivacy. I have made a promise that you will always be able to do so and I intend to keep this promise.
  • From version 2.1.21-5 I don't know will allow dangerous functions once (other functions are still denied once)
