A C library for inline hooking of native functions on 32-bit Android, supporting ARM, Thumb16, and Thumb32 instruction sets. It lets you redirect arbitrary native function calls to your own replacement functions and optionally restore the originals.

Use cases

• hook native functions in Android apps
• intercept libc calls like puts in a native library
• instrument ARM binaries for security research
• patch function behavior at runtime on Android
• build Frida-like hooking tools for ARM32

When to choose

• you need to hook native ARM/Thumb functions on 32-bit Android without a large framework
• you want a small C library you can build with the Android NDK
• you're doing Android security research or vulnerability analysis on ARMv7

When to avoid

• you target 64-bit ARM (arm64) devices
• you need a maintained, actively updated hooking solution
• you prefer higher-level frameworks like Frida or Xposed
• you need to hook very short functions, which inline hooking cannot handle
