Summary:

Manage and switch GPU rendering APIs via Shizuku.

Description:

GAMA (Graphics API Manager for Android) is a specialized utility that allows users to switch between Vulkan and OpenGL rendering APIs system-wide. GAMA helps optimize device thermals and battery life by reducing GPU overhead through smarter rendering choices.

Key Features:

  • API Switching: Toggle between Vulkan and OpenGL without root access.
  • Knox-Safe: Operates via Shizuku, ensuring no system security flags are tripped.
  • Tasker Integration: Automate renderer changes based on battery levels or specific app launches.
  • Optimized UI: Modern interface built with Jetpack Compose, replacing complex terminal commands.

Note: This application requires Shizuku to be installed and running on the device to execute system-level commands safely. The repository includes a 'fastlane' folder with localized metadata (title, short description, and full description) for the store listing.
