With more than 500 million downloads, Lucky Patcher is one of the most popular apps available. Some of its functions may be a bit controversial but the app is certainly useful. Read below to learn how to install the app on your Android device.
Note: in order to run the app your device should run Android 2.3 or higher. On lower Android version the app will not run.
How to install the app
If apps from third-party sources were not previously installed on the device, you will have to enable installation from unknown sources. Go to Settings/Security and look for the Unknown Sources tab. Tap and enable the option.
Download the Lucky Patcher APK file and tap on the installation file. Accept the permissions and install the app. While most of the functions will work without root, it is mandatory in the case of the more advanced features.
How to root your device
There several rooting methods available, from flashing accustom ROM to installing a one-click APK that will do the job for you. Flashing a ROM requires a large amount of time and if you don’t know what you are doing you can brick your smartphone. A bricked device cannot be used and since rooting is forbidden by most manufacturers, your warranty won’t cover the possible damage.
If you plan or need to use the root functions offered by Lucky Patcher, you should install an app like Kingroot or TowelRoot. After the rooting process is finished, follow the steps presented above in order to install Lucky Patcher.
