LiTiaotiao was discontinued in August 2023, a backup APK of the last working version is in the repository.

In plain English

LiTiaotiao-Custom-Rules is a collection of configuration rules for an Android app called LiTiaotiao (Chinese for something like "jump jump"), which is a tool that automatically skips and closes unwanted pop-ups inside other Android apps. The rules in this repository tell LiTiaotiao what to look for and dismiss: in-app advertisements, update prompts, youth mode warnings, and permission request dialogs that appear when you open various Chinese Android applications. The rules are split into two sets. Basic rules handle ad pop-ups, update notices, and similar interruptions. Enhanced rules handle more involved automated interactions within apps. Both sets are distributed as JSON files that users import into LiTiaotiao through a paste interface inside the app itself. The repository includes a note at the top that the project has stopped updating its ad and pop-up rules because of technical limitations in how LiTiaotiao detects on-screen elements. Some apps do not expose any identifiable text or labels on their ad close buttons, which makes it impossible to write reliable rules for them. The maintainer suggests switching to a similar tool called GKD for ongoing coverage. LiTiaotiao itself was officially discontinued in August 2023, when its developer announced an indefinite halt to updates. The repository preserves a backup of the last working version of the app for users who want to continue using it. The FAQ section answers common questions in Chinese, covering topics like how to open the JSON rule files, how to fix import errors, and what to do if certain rules require a manual screen gesture to activate. This project is written entirely in Chinese and is aimed at users of Chinese Android apps who want to reduce the number of interruptions they encounter.
