Safety Information
RVX Manager is inotia00's fork of ReVanced Manager, adapted to build ReVanced Extended rather than the upstream patch set. It performs the same job as the official Manager, applying patches to an app you supply and signing the output locally, but it points at the Extended bundle by default. Releases come from the fork's GitHub repository.
Why a separate manager exists
Patch bundles and the tool that applies them evolve together. Extended carries patches the upstream patcher does not always know how to handle, and its version pinning is tighter, so the fork adjusts the tool to match its own bundle. Running Extended patches through the official Manager is possible in some configurations but is not the supported path.
The fork also carries interface differences: a patch list organised around the Extended catalogue, defaults tuned for it, and version guidance for the source APK built into the flow rather than left to the documentation.
Running both managers on one device
The two apps use different package identifiers and can coexist. What cannot coexist is their output. Each generates its own signing key, so a build from one cannot update or replace a build from the other, and Android will block the install with a signature mismatch.
If you want to try both patch sets, expect to uninstall the patched app between attempts and to lose whatever settings it stored. Keeping a copy of the source APK you patched from saves the largest part of the round trip.
Requirements and behaviour during a build
You need a current Android release, install permission granted to the Manager, and enough storage for the source file plus the output plus temporary working data. Patching is processor bound and can take several minutes on modest hardware. Leaving the app in the foreground until it finishes avoids having the system kill the process partway through.
The source APK version has to match what the current Extended bundle expects. This is the most frequent failure point, and it is checked before the run rather than discovered afterwards, so heed the warning when the tool raises one.
Getting a genuine copy
Take the RVX Manager APK from the fork's GitHub releases page, where assets are published with hashes attached to each release entry. This site does not host it. A manager holds install permission and generates the key your patched apps are signed with, so a tampered copy is worth more to an attacker than a tampered media app.
Because it is a single-maintainer community project, availability and release timing are less predictable than the upstream Manager. That is a genuine consideration rather than a footnote: the official Manager is the more conservative choice if you want the shorter gap between a YouTube update and a working patch.
RVX Manager APK: Frequently Asked Questions
It is official for ReVanced Extended and unaffiliated with the upstream ReVanced project. Two separate maintainers, two separate repositories.
It is configured for the Extended bundle. Use the official ReVanced Manager for the upstream patch set rather than trying to cross the two.
No. They install under different identifiers and run side by side. Their patched outputs are what conflict, not the managers themselves.
Most often a source APK version that the current bundle does not support. Check the version the bundle targets and patch a matching file.
On a non-root install, yes. The manager only builds the app. Account access still requires the companion component installed beforehand.
