Hi maintainer, can you please outline the differences in functionality between using this on a rooted vs non-rooted device? Thank you

I've never used it with a rooted device! :)

I don't think there should be any significant difference in funcitonality, other than perhaps the set of directories accessible. In general, you should be able to access anything that you can view / access using `adb shell ls`, `adb pull` and `adb push`

Understood, thanks. I thought there was some exploit or something in play.

Nothing that exciting, I'm afraid.
