This is the only installer that is ad free and requires no internet permission!
The only installer that will install ANY Busybox binary available for Android…you find it on the web and this will install it!
This installer has the smallest Busybox binaries available, right around 800kb unlike the other installers which are over a meg.
Pro version contains no ads or nag screens, Backup feature (for safer installs), uninstall feature, Advance Smart install feature, the ability to hand pick the applets you want, safety check for missing applets on start, and better overall support. The pro version will receive more frequent updates than the free version will.

BusyBox is a software application that provides many standard Unix tools, much like the larger (but more capable) GNU Core Utilities. BusyBox is designed to be a small executable for use with the Linux kernel, which makes it ideal for use with embedded devices. It has been self-dubbed “The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux”.
Leave this installed if you always want to get the latest version of busybox!
