i have tried opening the code with different editors but still I cant understand the code

Solution

  • You can use jadx to reverse APKs and read classes' code in java.

    Also you can use dex2jar to convert dex files to jar then use java decompilers to convert .class to .java, but i suggest you use jadx because it has a graphical user interface with a lot of tools to simplify reverse engineering.
