We are proud to announce that DexGuard 8.1 is now available for download. This release includes new security features and additional functionality.
New security features:
- Code packing. DexGuard could already encrypt specific sensitive classes. It can now also encrypt all combined bytecode as an additional layer of protection.
- Hook detection. The DexGuard run-time SDK now detects hooking frameworks (Xposed, Substrate) that attempt to modify your applications' behavior.
Additional functionality:
- Android Studio plugin. The DexGuard plugin for Android Studio provides syntax highlighting, auto-completion and highlighting of potentially suboptimal or erroneous configuration.
- Instant Instant Apps. DexGuard enables you to automatically create Instant Apps from existing projects without project restructuring or manual code refactoring. Read more.
Extended support:
- Java 9. DexGuard is ready for Java 9 as soon as Gradle is.
