Connect and share knowledge in a single, structured, easy-to-search location. If you need to access the information underlying your application's DEX files, APK Analyzer's DEX file viewer is the perfect tool. You may need to give permission to a specific application to install unofficial APK files. For example, after selecting Chrome, you might need to turn on Allow from this source.
This viewer allows you to understand any changes that have been made to your application during compilation. Usually, there will be another folder named “values” containing XML files that contain simple values, such as strings (strings). Zzos is much less well-known than apktool, but there are some APKs that are better handled (and vice versa). For the most part, apktool didn't manage APKs that contain custom resource types (not modifiers) the last time I checked them, and they are managed by zzos.
So we can use any decompression tool or file browser compatible with zip files to view the contents of an APK. In the tree view, nodes in italics are references that do not have a definition in the selected DEX file. You can't open or install APK files on an iPhone or iPad because the file is created in a completely different way than the applications used on those devices and the two platforms are not compatible with each other. This is very simple when you work with your own applications, since you should already have access to their APKs.
Each package, class, and method in the DEX file has the counts listed in the Defined Method and Reference Methods columns. It only works for APK files because the file format already uses ZIP, but you're just adding a different file extension (. This file contains the application's meta-information, such as the name of the application, the name of the package, the different activities and services, the necessary permissions, the compatible version of Android, etc. Although you usually need a file conversion program or service to convert one type of file to another, they are not very useful when it comes to APK files.
This tool converts the manifest file and other class files to a readable format as much as possible. You can choose to create a folder on your device and copy the downloaded APK file or select a folder within the phone's folders and do the same.
