  • Cant prevent extraction.
  • Can do proguard but a good attacker it wont stop, because he can decompile your and reverse engineer it. Then he can listen to your LogCat, Binder, sniff communication...
  • On the other hand u can do a lot of stuff to make your code better. Use SSL learn how to use proguard better so it ill be harder for them, dont write anything to log, encrypt data.
