A reverse engineering suite that runs entirely on Android. No PC, no ADB, no desktop tools — everything from APK extraction to native binary analysis happens on-device.

MCP Server

androidReverse includes a built-in Model Context Protocol server, allowing MCP-compatible AI clients to connect and interact with the tool directly.

Java Decompilation

Eight engines selectable per-class with a single tap:

Native Binary Analysis

Powered by an embedded Radare2 engine via JNI.

• Control Flow Graphs (CFG): Interactive draggable node canvas with pinch-to-zoom, built on Compose Canvas
• Call Graph & Xref Tracing: Depth-adjustable graphs for incoming/outgoing calls and field read/write references
• Multi-mode output: Switch between Pseudo-C decompilation, raw assembly, and hex dumps
• Block Inspector: Assembly instructions with memory addresses and execution heuristics
• Binary Info Panel: Executable metadata at a glance
• Function Rename & Comments: Annotate binary functions directly within the decompiler

APK & Resource Handling

• Universal extraction: .apk, .xapk, and split .apks — from storage or installed apps
• Hardened AXML decoding: Reflection-backed AXMLPrinter that bypasses modern manifest obfuscation
• Deep ARSC parsing: Navigate resource tables, string pools, and XML attribute mappings in a unified tree view

• Jump-to-definition: Navigate directly to class and method definitions from Smali registers
• Class Structure Compass: Filter and jump to methods or fields within large classes
• Smart Smali Explainer: Select any block of Smali lines and get an instant plain-language explanation of what the code does

Cross-Platform App Support

• Flutter: Dart AOT analysis via Unflutter
• Unity: Native il2cpp metadata parsing and function recovery

Code Editor

Built on Sora Editor with TextMate grammar pipelines and Darcula theme. Syntax highlighting for Java, Smali, ARM assembly, C, and hex.

Built-in Utilities

Data Converter — On-the-fly encoding/decoding with no external tools:

Base64 · Hex ↔ Decimal · Hex ↔ Text · URL Encode/Decode · Unicode Escape · XOR Cipher · Color Hex Preview

Global Notebook — Persistent notes across sessions. Track offsets, document findings, save snippets.

Class Bookmarking — Pin critical classes for fast access during long sessions.

Deep Memory Search — Regex-supported search across Smali, class names, and native binary patterns simultaneously.

Known Limitations

• Code editing and APK recompilation are not yet available. This release focuses on analysis and inspection.
