# 🧩 Patching apps
The following pages will guide you through using ReVanced Manager to patch apps.
## 🪜 Steps to patch apps
1. Navigate to the **Patcher** tab from the bottom navigation bar
2. Tap on the **Select an app** card
3. Choose an app to patch[^1]
> **Note**: The suggested version is visible in each app's card.
4. Tap on the **Select patches** card and select the patches you want to apply[^2]
> **Warning**: If you see a warning you can click on it for more information.
5. Tap on the **Done** then **Patch** button
> **Warning**: The patching process may take ~5 minutes. Exiting the app may increase the time it takes to patch.
6. Tap on the **Install** button
> **Note**: If you are rooted, you can mount the patched app on top of the original app.[^4]
> Optionally, you may export the patched app to storage in the top right corner.
[^1]: You may be prompted to select an app from storage in case you have no root access on your device. In this case, select the APK file from your device storage.[^3]
[^2]: It is suggested to use the default set of patches by tapping on the **Default** button above the list of patches.
[^3]: You have to source APK files yourself. ReVanced does not provide any APK files.
[^4]: Mounting the patched app on top of the original app will only work if the installed app version matches the version of the app selected in step 3. above.
