Android Asset Packaging Tool

The Android Asset Packaging Tool (aapt) takes your application resource files, such as the AndroidManifest.xml file and the XML files for your Activities, and compiles them. An R.java is also produced so you can reference your resources from your Java code. This tool allows you to view, create, and update Zip-compatible archives (zip, jar, apk). It can also compile resources into binary assets.

To install the latest version of aapt2 in your favorite operating system just copy the aapt2 installation command from above and paste it into terminal. It will download and install the latest version of aapt2 2026 package in your OS.
