To track state-sponsored malware and combat the stalkerware of abusive partners, you need tools. Safe, reliable, and fast tools. That’s why EFF’s Threat Lab is proud to announce our very own tool to download Android APK files, apkeep. This enables users to download an Android APK or number of APKs directly from the command-line—either from the Google Play Store (with Google credentials), from a third-party which mirrors the Play Store apps (no credentials needed), from the F-Droid open source repository (or mirrors), or from the Huawei AppGallery.
Written in async Rust, this tool prioritizes simplicity of use, memory safety, reliability, and speed. It has also been compiled to a number of architectures and platforms, including Android’s armv7, aarch64 and i686 platforms to download apps directly from an Android device using Termux. It is available right now for you to use.
