Hi which libraries are usi g internally for faster pasring of XML and dex
★★★★★peperoni man· Nov 19, 2023
Well-made app. Simple but sweet, it does its job as it says. I think a few modifications would be very helpful, such as allowing copy to lines of code when double tapped/held, and the most wanted of mine: to be able to edit, delete and create files(a file explorer).
★★★★★Kitty Kat714· Feb 12, 2025
Finally, found an app that can decompile and read all the code even when other applications couldn't because they said the files had been corrupted. This is a godsend to me. I just wish I could easily copy and rewrite the code within the app. But everything else is great!👍🏻

Impressed by using this app. Including sharing options will be very useful. There are only methods definitions can't we get method implementation.?
★★★★★Dil Dost Wahag Wadela Wafa (DDWWW)· Apr 24, 2023
Am going to give the honest rating. Honesty, this app does exactly what it says and that's all we can expect for a tiny app. Amazing work. Those who misinterpret that this app can mod apps, No! This is for reading an app that's why it's called explorer.
★★☆☆☆Andreas Toth· Jul 18, 2020
Am I missing something or isn't it possible to highlight and copy any of the code or resources?!
★★☆☆☆pro2stinger· Sep 8, 2023
I would like it more if it had a file explorer. A way to go through /storage/emulated/0/ and open loose dex files and if I have rooted it will start at /
★☆☆☆☆AvidKain· Apr 5, 2021
Not really usable as it only shows classes and XML, not the actual code.
