4 suggested ways to open apk files:
1.open apk file by Android Studio (For Photo,java code and analyze size) the best way
2.open by applications winRar,7zip,etc (Just to see photos and ...)
3.use website javadecompilers (For Photo and java code)
4.use APK Tools (For Photo and java code)
unzip my.apk
This does the trick from the Linux command line since the APK format is just a ZIP file on the top.
In case of Hybrid apps developed using cordova and angularjs, you can:
1) Rename the .apk file to .zip
2) Extract/Unzip the contents
3) In the assets folder you will get the www folder
You can also see the contents of an APK file within the Android device itself, which helps a lot in debugging.
