Android SU root required

Hi,

I installed SDR touch and the SDRPlay driver from the google play store. However, when I tried to launch the program I was told that I required SU root privileges to use the SDRPlay driver. Do I need to root my android device before using it?

Thanks

Hi
I had no problem on 3 devices one of them seems not to be rooted as it refused to work for that reason with some other software.
Have you tried with an RTL dongle ?

You do not need to root the device. What OS version is it using?

Various Android OS versions treat USB security differently. You should get a prompt asking you to allow connectivity with the device. If not, something is wrong.

Best regards,
