jadx: A Java repository from g201314

JADX

jadx - Dex to Java decompiler

Command line and GUI tools for producing Java source code from Android Dex and Apk files

Warning

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 code from APK, dex, aar, aab and zip files
decode AndroidManifest.xml and other resources from resources.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
