Jun 10, 2020 As a programmer, we frequently come across interesting apps and games on the Play Store. And wonder what if there is a magical software that can take the.apk file and reveal its actual source code.Today, I'm gonna give you an ultimate list of best APK decompilers. Yes, there are tons of software available to decompile a.apk file. Recently, I had compiled an ultimate list of 47 best APK decompilers on my website. I arranged them into 4 different sections. Open Source APK Decompilers; Online APK Decompilers; APK Decompiler for Windows, Mac or Linux; APK Decompiler Apps; I hope this collection will be. To decompile your APK file click the Choose File button and select your.APK file. After the file name is listed next to Choose File box click the Decompile Your APK button. Our system will upload your APK to our server and start decompiling it. Fora noted that because some data can be lost in the decompiling process, it's better to use a decompiler that was made with Android in mind. This skips the JAR step, converting DEX directly to Java.
