I'm sorry to hear that. I thought it's a main feature in LibChecker, now it's gone.

If you indeed need this feature, you can try using another app called "boundo" as an alternative.

It was never a “main feature,” but rather a deprecated one. Due to personal reasons, I no longer have the time to maintain this project. If you pay close attention, you should notice that the current dex viewing feature is very rudimentary and almost has no reference value. Maintaining dex rules requires a lot of patience and time, which I currently lack. I don’t want to give users a “half-baked feature,” so I’ve decided to remove it. Fortunately, I only hid the entry point, rather than completely removing the feature. Maybe it will come back in the future? But I think it’s unlikely for me.

Could you explain what's Dex rules?
If I am available, I will try to fix it.

This is not something that can be solved by fixing it, but rather the rules are too large to maintain. You can choose to fork it and branch it to maintain it yourself, as it is no longer related to the main line.

Do you mean the feature like androidx.compose.* will be tagged with "Jetpack Compose"?

It refers to the fact that there are too many Dex rules and developers are unable to maintain them effectively. understand?😕

I want to know what's dex rules.

I want to know what's dex rules.

For example, Okio, developed by Square, requires Dex rules to label all Okio libraries and give them corresponding labels. However, there are too many libraries like this, whether well-known or not, that individuals cannot maintain.

Thank you for your explanation. But why not only removing the Dex labeling feature instead of "removing" the whole things?

This requires the author himself to explain to you. I suggest you flip over and read the author's original words before.
