APK Recorder Analyzer

Purpose-built for developers and security analysts, this tool analyzes Google Recorder APKs to reveal manifest data, permissions, components, and resource usage. It operates by parsing the APK to extract structured data about package name, versionCode, versionName, minSdkVersion, targetSdkVersion, permission sets, app components, intents, and feature flags. It also enumerates resources, locale availability, assets, and signing certificates where available. The core value lies in producing a consistent, machine-readable snapshot that supports audits, comparisons, and compliance checks. The tool differentiates between required fields (manifest data, permissions) and optional expansions (signature fingerprints, libraries, resources). Outputs are available as JSON and CSV and are designed for integration into CI pipelines or security workflows. Use cases include verifying an APK against a policy, comparing multiple versions, and documenting what an artifact declares for release notes.
