Xposed Modules

Let Me Downgrade

Android's app installation system does not allow users to downgrade to an older version of an app when they already have a newer version installed. Let Me Downgrade is an Xposed module for Android 12 through 16 QPR2 that enables users to bypass this restriction. The app includes a Status screen with a switch to allow or block downgrades at any time. You can also add an optional App Downgrades Quick Settings tile that mirrors the same on/off state for quicker access.

鈿狅笍 WARNING: Let Me Downgrade is intended for rooted devices running Android 12 through 16 QPR2 and requires Xposed. The required Xposed variant to use is LSPosed. Other Xposed variants will not work. Additionally, this module cannot be guaranteed to work on all devices. In the worst case, it can cause a bootloop. Use at your own risk.


To use Let Me Downgrade:

  1. Install the JingMatrix LSposed fork. This requires your device to be rooted with Magisk or KernelSU. Installation instructions for LSPosed are available here.
  2. Install Let Me Downgrade.
  3. Activate the Let Me Downgrade module in the LSposed user interface.

  1. Reboot your device and sign in.

  1. Open Let Me Downgrade from your launcher. When the module is active in LSPosed, the Status card shows whether app downgrades are allowed or blocked; use the switch to turn the hook on or off.

  2. Optionally, add the App Downgrades Quick Settings tile from the tile editor. The tile mirrors the in-app switch.

馃摪 Important News about Upcoming Let Me Downgrade Releases

This release is going to be the final version in the Let Me Downgrade v1.0 release series. Starting with Let Me Downgrade v1.1.0, this project will migrate to a new version of the LSPosed API. This will require updating your LSPosed version to a release that supports LSPosed API 101. Any version of LSPosed that does not support API 101 will not work with any upcoming releases. Please plan accordingly for this transition, as it may impact other Xposed modules that you use as well.
