The Termux method lets you run ReconnectX on Android through a terminal environment, giving you full control over the process without needing a separate app install. This approach is ideal if you prefer a CLI-based workflow or want to run multiple accounts on a single device.
You must install Termux from F-Droid, not the Google Play Store. The Play Store version is outdated and the installer will fail.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

Installation

1

Install Termux from F-Droid

Download and install Termux from the F-Droid repository. Open Termux once installed to confirm it launches correctly.
Do not install Termux from the Google Play Store. The Play Store version is outdated and incompatible with the ReconnectX installer.
2

Grant storage access

Inside Termux, run the following command and tap Allow when Android prompts for storage permission:
termux-setup-storage
3

Get your personal install command

Your install command is unique to your account. To retrieve it:
  1. Join the Reconnect Discord server at discord.gg/reconnect
  2. Go to the #download channel
  3. Click the Get Install Command button
  4. The bot sends your personal, one-time command in a private message — only you can see it
Your install command is tied to your account. Never share it with anyone. Sharing your install command results in an automatic permanent ban.
4

Run the install command in Termux

Paste your personal command into Termux and press Enter. It looks like this:
curl -sL https://dl.reconnect-tool.com/install.sh | bash -s -- YOUR_TOKEN
The installer automatically handles everything:
  • Updates Termux packages
  • Installs all required dependencies
  • Downloads and launches ReconnectX

After Installation

Once the installer finishes, you don’t need the install command again. From the second run onwards, just open Termux and run:
python3 ~/.reconnect/reconnect.py
Your device will appear as Online in your Reconnect dashboard within a few seconds of the client starting.

Updating ReconnectX

To update to the latest version, go to the #download channel in Discord and click Get Update Command. Run the command in Termux — no token or reinstall required:
curl -sL https://dl.reconnect-tool.com/update.sh | bash

Troubleshooting

If you run into issues during or after installation, use the table below to find a fix.

Keeping Termux Running in the Background

Android’s battery optimization frequently kills background processes like Termux. Disable it to keep ReconnectX running reliably: Settings → Apps → Termux → Battery → Unrestricted
On some devices (particularly Huawei, Xiaomi, and OPPO), the setting is located under:Battery → App Launch → set Termux to Manual, then enable all three toggles:
  • Auto-launch
  • Secondary launch
  • Run in background
