How To Disable the Developer Options Menu for Android

Android is an open source operating system for handheld devices that provides a better and more open environment for developers and common users. Google provides Android users with a dedicated SDK that contains various types of toolkits for developers.

The menu normally isn’t even visible because in some of the latest versions of Android Google rightfully hid the menu from plain sight.  We talked about how to enable the Developer Options menu in Android before when turning on USB debugging. But if USB debugging is no longer needed, it might be a good idea to disable the Developer Options menu and prevent a user from accidentally accessing them. I recently installed a custom ROM on an Android phone a friend who isn’t very tech-savvy, and I am quite certain that he would go snooping through these settings and break his phone, so it was a simple step to just disable them and prevent disaster.

Disable Developer Options on Android

  1. Open Settings on your device.
  2. Scroll to Apps/Applications and tap it.
  3. Then swipe the screen from right to left till you see the list of ALL apps.
  4. Find the Settings app and open it.
  5. Now tap the Clear data button.
  6. Now go back to Settings. Developer options should not be visible there any more.
