Is there a way to run btop in Android device?

[minhaj-my]

Hi, Everyone

I was just tweaking with an android device from Terminal and I couldn't find btop from pkg installer so i thought it was not supported in android but when I ssh to my computer from the Termux I can monitor my computer logs via btop and it looks amazing. so Just wondering is there any way to use btop from direct android devices to check the logs via termux, I mean they already support the htop.

Here my direct logs from my computer via ssh in android device:

Yes — but there's one important catch: the Android device needs to be rooted 🍟

Termux does package btop, but it lives in the root repository, which is why it doesn't appear in the normal package list.

On a rooted device, try:

pkg update
pkg install root-repo
pkg install btop

Then run btop with root privileges using whichever root tool you normally use in Termux.

On a non-rooted device, btop unfortunately can't access enough of Android's process and system metrics to do anything useful. The Termux package actually checks for this and exits when it isn't running as root. In that case, htop with limited information — or continuing to use btop over SSH as you're doing now — are the practical options 👍
