jadx - Dex to Java decompiler
Command line and GUI tools for producing Java source code from Android Dex and Apk files
❗❗❗ Please note that in most cases jadx can't decompile all 100% of the code, so errors will occur. Check Troubleshooting guide for workarounds
Main features:
- decompile Dalvik bytecode to java classes from APK, dex, aar, aab and zip files
- decode
AndroidManifest.xml
and other resources fromresources.arsc
- deobfuscator included
jadx-gui features:
- view decompiled code with highlighted syntax
- jump to declaration
- find usage
- full text search
- smali debugger, check wiki page for setup and usage
Jadx-gui key bindings can be found here
See these features in action here: jadx-gui features overview
- release from github:
- latest unstable build
After download unpack zip file go to bin
directory and run:
jadx
- command line versionjadx-gui
- UI version
On Windows run .bat
files with double-click
Note: ensure you have installed Java 11 or later 64-bit version.
For Windows, you can download it from oracle.com (select x64 Installer).
- Arch linux
sudo pacman -S jadx
- macOS
brew install jadx
- Flathub
flatpak install flathub com.github.skylot.jadx
You can use jadx in your java projects, check details on wiki page
JDK 11 or higher must be installed:
git clone https://github.com/skylot/jadx.git
cd jadx
./gradlew dist
(on Windows, use gradlew.bat
instead of ./gradlew
)
Scripts for run jadx will be placed in build/jadx/bin
and also packed to build/jadx-<version>.zip
