What SDK Scanner checks
- Enumerates SDKs bundled in the APK
- Names the network/vendor for each where known
- Gives you the list to cross-check against the Play SDK Index
- Highlights ad/analytics SDKs that carry policy weight
Good to know: This is a local SDK detector. It lists what's bundled so you can look each up — it doesn't query Google's Index live.
When to use SDK Scanner
- Best for
- Enumerating the SDKs bundled in an APK so you can cross-check each against the Google Play SDK Index yourself.
- Not the right tool for
- Not a live SDK Index query; it lists SDKs, you do the lookup.
- What you get back
- A list of detected SDKs to take to the Play SDK Index for policy/version status.
- How it differs from related APKLint tools
- It overlaps with the Tracker Detector but is framed for SDK Index cross-checking rather than ad/tracker focus.
- Limitations
- It does not pull live SDK Index data; verify each SDK's status on Google's site.
