A Gradle plugin for Android that packages key-value secrets (like API keys and passwords) into an encrypted native .so library at compile time, exposing them via a generated Java interface. It hides sensitive strings from plain-text APK resources without using reflection.
Use cases
- hide api keys in android app
- store passwords securely in android app
- encrypt secrets into native so library
- avoid plaintext strings in apk
- protect secure data from reverse engineering on android
When to choose
- you need to obfuscate secrets in an Android app at build time
- you want reflection-free access to embedded key-value secrets
When to avoid
- you need actively maintained or updated tooling (project is no longer maintained since 2018)
- you need true cryptographic security against determined attackers - native libs can still be reverse engineered
- you target modern Gradle/Android Gradle Plugin versions that may be incompatible
