First introduced in Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), Google included a hidden menu in stock Android with experimental options called System UI Tuner.

The option to launch System UI Tuner in Android version 9 and newer has been removed by Google, but the utility still exists in the system. This application will launch it if present.


This will work on all stock AOSP and Pixel builds of Android 9+. Third-party device manufacturers may choose to disable this menu completely in their Android builds. This does NOT work on Samsung devices! Samsung has removed the utility from their system software.
We are currently offering version 1.5.3. This is our latest, most optimized version. It is suitable for many different devices. Free download directly apk from the Google Play Store or other versions we're hosting. Moreover, you can download without registration and no login required.

We have more than 2000+ available devices for Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, Motorola, LG, Google, OnePlus, Sony, Tablet ... with so many options, it’s easy for you to choose games or software that fit your device.

It can come in handy if there are any country restrictions or any restrictions from the side of your device on the Google App Store.

What's New


• Updated target SDK to Android 16 (API level 36) and updated dependencies.
• Improved the uninstall experience on unsupported devices with a user confirmation dialog when the System UI Tuner class (com.android.systemui.DemoMode) is not found.

This is now buggy on Motorola's Android 15 update. The top bar goes right up into the status bar, meaning you can't easily tap the 3 dots. Also, you now can't toggle the last entry in the 'Status bar' screen as it's completely obstructed by the navigation bar.

Very good app! Have been using this up until today when i updated my software to Android 12 (One UI 4.1) and the app has stopped working, I get an error message saying "System UI Tuner isn't supported on this device" - other than that, the app worked well, please fix this soon! I cant stand looking at the plethora of icons on the top of my screen!

Looks great I have a pixel and I find the clock thing annoying. However there are no instructions on how to use it. Couldn't figure it out so kinda posting here for a developer response. Edit: you have to go into your settings, turn on developer mode, go to UI demo, turn that on, then go to the app and disable/enable the stuff u wanna see. Worked great, some additional options would be appreciated, like getting rid of app logos on the top left but it works great!

Thank you dev! This worked perfectly on Pixel 5 - it does exactly what the dev says, and simply opens the hidden system UI tuner menu. I used it for one purpose: to eliminate the persistent alarm icon since I have a couple permanently scheduled alarms. App requires zero permissions. Awesome! On a side note:. WHY does Google insist on removing options??? It's infuriating! Anyways, thanks again dev!

I wanted to remove the alarm clock icon in my status bar and after several hours of trying this and trying that with other System UI apps that required running cmd something or other that was way over my head and didn't work anyway, I almost stumbled across this app. It worked immediately after I restarted my phone. Hoping that it doesn't stop working one day, but noticed the useless alarm icon appeared when my phone ran an update.

on Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1, I can no longer hide the battery icon - the option to do so is selected, but the battery icon remains... same with the time as well.

The only thing I needed was the ability to have the clock to show hours, minutes and seconds in the Status Bar. I don't know why Google or the phone manufacturer thinks that people don't want or don't need this setting. Thanks to Bryan C I was able to set this in a matter of seconds. P.S. Want to install this app on Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite (SM-227U) but Google Play says it isn't supported. Any plans to update this app to allow it to be installed on this device?

When I updated to Android 12: my status bar's CLOCK lost its seconds. 😠 - This fixed that problem ‼️😁 Now shows time as hh,mm,ss. (OnePlus Oxygen/Android 12, N 200.) ... One brick from Android/Google's ever-growing "Walled Garden" Nanny OS— removed! ‼️🙂 This simple utility is easy to use, just flipping switches, self-explanatory, changes happen instantaneously.
