Configurations

APKognito offers both basic and advanced configurations. All basic configurations can be at the top of the Rename Settings page.

basic configurations location

There a several basic options that come build into a dropdown card menu on the main package renamer page.

Java Path

Java Version

Allows you to select which JDK or JRE version to use.

Output Settings

Output Directory

This is the directory that all renamed packages are placed into.

The default path is %APPDATA%\APKognito\output.

New Package Name

This is the replacement company name of a package.

Example

apk_replacement_name = apkognito

com.sombody101.myapp -> com.apkognito.myapp

The default value for this is apkognito.

Copy App Files

This option is only useful if there isn't enough space on which ever drive %TEMP% is defined on (usually the C drive %APPDATA%\Temp\). Disabling this toggle will move/delete the source app files immediately after their use, but before the process is finished. This is to preserve drive space.

Warning

APKognito will not reverse the process if the renaming process fails while this is set to move files. You'll have to rebuild your project and get the original app again. A warning dialog will appear when this option is toggled.

Push After Rename

Each renamed package will be pushed to an ADB enabled device after being renamed. This toggle requires that platform tools is installed and a valid path is set in APKognito. You can also enter the command :install-adb in the Console Page to install and configure platform tools automatically.
