GUI for apktool, signapk, zipalign and baksmali utilities.
It is a tool for reverse engineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications; it makes possible to debug smali code step by step. Also it makes working with app easier because of project-like files structure and automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk, etc.

Sometimes apps may protect or obfuscate for content protection purposes and so on. Bypassing of such is beyond the scope of this tool, so please DO NOT post an issue regarding to it. This tool does not support bypassing such securities
A: Maybe, but it's not easy since Microsoft is dumb for not making it easy for .NET Core unlike Java's GUI which supports all supported platforms
A: Download Apktool.jar and replace it on Resources folder
A: Download Baksmali.jar/Smali.jar and replace it on Resources folder
A: Simply delete the config.xml file
A: It just a false positive, anti-virus always flag tools/softwares like this as virus. Don't always believe what your anti-virus are telling you. Try to compile the source by yourself and you will see
A: No, that's not the point of this tool, and I don't have time for that. However, you can try making it by yourself, or have a look on SaveToGame which can give you ideas how to do it.
Use Visual Studio 2019 and above. NET Framework 4.8 SDK is required
If you like to translate a language, you must use Visual Studio 2022.
-
Create new resx file under Languages folder within Visual Studio. If you created a resx file outside Visual Studio, it will not detect it
-
Open any forms. Under properties, scroll down until you see Language, and select any language you would like to translate. It will create new resx file inside cs file

Same as Apktool by iBotPeaches, It is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms and other GOOD purposes. Just try to be fair with authors of an app, that you use and probably like.
