Follow the guide to install Magisk Modules on any rooted Android Phone. We recently did an article<\/a> on Pixel 2 Experience which is basically a Magisk module compiled by\u00a0joeyhuab<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>over at xda-developers. This module lets you have the Google Pixel 2 UI features on your Android phone. The catch is, your phone must be running Android 8.0 or above to install Pixel 2 Experience module. Read our article<\/a> to know more about its features.<\/p>\n

Similar to Xposed or Cydia, Magisk has an\u00a0official repository which lets you download these modules. The modules can be anything from low-level tweaks like changing the emojis on your phone to installing high-level audio mods. Although, many of the mods are not yet supported by the official repository, however, this is not much of an issue as there are ways to easily install your desired mods on your smartphone.<\/p>\n

Basically, there are two methods to install Magisk\u00a0modules. The first one is to install the official modules from the repository, this is an easy and\u00a0straight-forward method. However, the second method is to install third-party unofficial modules, which can be a little tricky as you have to find reliable modules first and then you’ll have to load them up in the Magisk Manager app.<\/p>\n

To install the Pixel 2 Experience, we will be following the second method. However, we will show you the first method as well.<\/p>\n

Method One:\u00a0Install Magisk Modules from the Official Magisk Repository<\/h2>\n

Installing modules from the official repo is pretty simple.<\/p>\n

Step 1-\u00a0<\/strong>Download the latest Magisk App manager from here<\/a> if you don’t have it already.<\/p>\n

Step 2-\u00a0<\/strong>Navigate to the downloaded APK file through your file browser and install it. Make sure you have the “install from unknown sources” option enabled from the security settings of your phone. Also, do note that you will need root access for this app<\/strong>. If your device is not rooted, a simple google search will offer a ton of guides.<\/p>\n

Step 3-\u00a0<\/strong>Once its installed, open it and go to the download section of the app. You can either browse through the list or use the search function. Once you find the desired module, tap it and it will show all the relevant info.<\/p>\n
