Apktool

It is a tool for reverse engineering , decoding , recompiling , binding etc . It allow you to compile apk in termux and you can also bind android apk with payloads using this.

APKTool is a powerful and popular open-source tool used in Android app development and reverse engineering. It allows you to disassemble, modify, and reassemble Android APK (Application Package) files. APK files are the format used to distribute and install Android apps on devices.

Uses

1. Decompilation: APKTool can take an APK file and decompile it into a set of resources and the AndroidManifest.xml file, along with the application code (Smali code).

  • apkmod d <apk file name>

2. Modification: You can modify the resources, code, and AndroidManifest.xml to make changes to an existing Android app. This can be useful for customizing an app, removing or adding features, or translating it into a different language.

3. Reassembly: After making your modifications, APKTool allows you to recompile the modified files back into a new APK, which can be installed and run on an Android device.

  • apkmod b <app folder path>

4. Resource Management: APKTool manages the complex structure of Android resources, making it easier to edit layouts, images, and other assets.

5. Easy to Use: While APKTool has a command-line interface, it is relatively user-friendly, and there are also graphical user interfaces (GUIs) available for those who prefer a more visual approach.
