Content Provider Helper vs Geto
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Content Provider Helper
This helper is a frontend to query installed content providers. Android's content providers are similar to database tables.: They have a name (aka "content:" uri), columns and they can be queried similar to SQL. Android uses content-providers as API to manage global accessable data (i.e. images, address book, text messages, ...). Forked from jenzz-s ContentProviderHelper which is not maintained anymore. App permissions are set generously to provide maximum compatibility.
Geto
The only reason I created this app is to turn off that damn Developer Options when using a banking app. The only annoying thing about it is you have to go to the Settings app. When you turn off that switch button, your Developer Options configurations will be reset to default. The good thing is that when you modify your settings through its Shared Preferences, you won't lose all your settings once the Developer Options are modified. With Shizuku, you can grant this app with android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS in order for it to modify your Settings values.
