jadx Too Slow and Memory-Hungry for Large-Scale APK Reverse Engineering

Security researchers find jadx, including headless MCP mode, too slow and prone to out-of-memory on APKs over 100MB. This blocks pipeline-scale analysis of hundreds of apps, and a faster backend is requested.

No Diagnostic Signal When Android Hidden-API Changes Silently Break an App

Developers maintaining an Android system-management app have no way to detect or diagnose when a new Android OS version changes hidden APIs the app depends on, since no logs, warnings, or version checks surface the failure; tracing the cause requires manually stepping through code in a debugger. This leaves both maintainers and users without early warning that compatibility has silently broken.

The Notion Android application loads data noticeably slower than the web version and hangs frequently across different Android devices. Mobile-first users who rely on the app for quick captures or offline access find it unreliable compared to alternatives. The performance gap is consistent enough that Android is effectively a second-class client.
