Do I need to pay for root access?
  • Genymotion Desktop: Dynamic rooting is a licensed feature. Rooting the non-rooted images is possible, but enabling dynamic root requires a license. So yes, for Desktop, you may need to purchase a license to toggle root on some images.
  • Genymotion SaaS: Most recent Android images are not rooted by default, but rooting can be enabled dynamically. The SaaS docs describe how to root/unroot and mention the feature, but they do not state a separate root-access fee, implying it’s tied to the SaaS offering/plan rather than a standalone extra charge.

If you’re unsure which product you’re using (Desktop vs SaaS) or which image/plan you have, I can check your specific setup and confirm any licensing implications.
