Ratings and Reviews

Rating: 4.1/5 based on 70K+ reviews

5 ★ After failing to properly root the phone, it could no longer power off or turn off the screen. After this app ran a fast reboot everything was ok. Good work guys. Saved my money

2 ★ Unfortunately, this app doesn't really function without root under Android Oreo 8.0 or later (probably not even on Nougat 7.0 unless special permissions are granted using ADB). Google added a lot of restrictions preventing apps from getting information on any processes but their own. As a result, it's no longer possible to stop other apps this way - only the system software can do that. I'm afraid that Fast Reboot has outlived its usefulness.

1 ★ Thought it'd helpful for my LG G5. Checked RAM, hit the app, and poof! Nothing was changed. Boo!

5 ★ It pretty much does what the company says it does, quickly and without problems. The power button on my Motorola Droid Turbo is frozen (after four years of use), so I can't reboot normally. This enables me to work around the problem, and I hope I never really need to hard reboot.

5 ★ WARNING TO EVERYBODY: Greenify breaks Fast Reboot and it stopps working on your device!! Fast Reboot worked well for a looooong time on my phone but stopped working after I installed greenify witch "greenefied" Fast Reboot without my consent,after this Fast Reboot never worked again even after I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times in a row. It didnt even work after I uninstalled greenify and reinstalled Fast Reboot. Please fix what they broke.

5 ★ Works all the time, from 2017 user here, first app that I always install whenever I've got a new phone

5 ★ i have used task killing apps in the past and none of them work as well or as simply as Fast reboot. i normally dont write reviews but this is a great app! i don't have an expensive phone so every bit of RAM os precious. strongly recommend this app, especially for someone with a lower end pho e like myself. Well do e dev team!

1 ★ Looks like it does not work on Android 8 (Oreo). Just says "Fast Reboot performed successfully", but the location services icon is still in the status bar which means the process that uses it did not get killed (I used Fast Reboot successfully for this purpose on my previous phone with Android 7).

4 ★ I always install this and a homescreen that shows my RAM usage. I see every time it works...except with Android Pie. I get a toast that its not compatible, and when i use it, nothing changes. So, it needs updated to work with Pie (9.0)

5 ★ Wow. Fingerprint wasn't working so I wanted to restar my phone. After clicking on the app, it worked again. It seems to do the same job as reboot, but instantly. I don't have root , but I did go to developer options and tapped on "Unlock bootloader". I'm amazed.

5 ★ Very useful app. Little space are use. Clear up very fast, speed up mobile quite good.

1 ★ I was being optimistic. But, does not work in android 10.

3 ★ It just says "Fast Reboot performed successfully", but I guess it does nothing like what the app screenshot with bunch of information. My phone(J5 Prime) is using Android 8.0(Oreo). And probably if you can fix this bug, it may be my daily use app if something goes wrong.

5 ★ Have used this app for over 6 months and it works fine but remember your phone is not actually re-booted just the apps this makes the phone just that bit faster its well worth trying as its free so no cost to you. there is a Pro version of the app if you want the extras its also worth a look at

1 ★ Does nothing. It runs in 650 ms. It displays s successful message. The lastbposter was fully accurate.
