For example compare:

> Static Analysis

> From my phone, I exported the APK to my computer. I used the app called APK Export

> Play Store Link

> I used apktool to get the resources of the app.

> I used jadx to obtain the decompiled source code from the extracted DEX file.

> Now, I have everything I need.

----- with ------

> Static Analysis

> 1) From my phone, I exported the APK to my computer. You can use this app for example:

> [APK Export (Backup & Share) - Apps on Google Play]

> 2) An APK is a ZIP file, so I unzipped it and extracted the DEX file.

> 3) Thanks to jadx, I managed to obtain the decompiled source code from the extracted DEX file.

> 4) To finish, I used apktool to get the resources of the app.

> Now, I have everything I need.
