apk-mitm
A CLI tool that automatically patches Android APK files to bypass HTTPS security for traffic inspection.
What is apk-mitm?
apk-mitm is a CLI tool that automates the process of modifying Android APK files to allow HTTPS traffic inspection through a proxy. It works by decoding the APK, altering its Network Security Configuration to accept custom certificates, and disabling certificate pinning mechanisms. This solves the problem of analyzing app traffic that is otherwise blocked by modern Android security features.
Security researchers, penetration testers, and mobile developers who need to inspect HTTPS traffic from Android apps for debugging, analysis, or security auditing purposes.
Developers choose apk-mitm because it automates a tedious manual process into a single command, works without requiring a rooted device, and supports patching both APK and App Bundle formats. Its simplicity and reliability make it a go-to tool for preparing apps for proxy-based inspection.
