10/01/2020, 5:41 PMMaybe I'm way way off, but, I would have thought that kotlin multiplatform compiled to native? At which point, it's probably obfuscated enough?

10/01/2020, 5:41 PMhehe, I thought you were looking for occurrences of words in obfuscated code 🙂

10/01/2020, 5:42 PMI guess it depends on whether you're talking about an Android JVM target vs Android Native target. usually it's the former, no?

10/01/2020, 5:44 PMWith KMM, you can get this flexibility and retain the benefits of native programming. Use a single codebase for the business logic of iOS and Android apps and write platform-specific code only where it’s necessary, to implement a native UI or when working with platform-specific APIs.

10/01/2020, 5:45 PMlooks like you can choose whether to compile it to native or bytecode, when targetting android

10/01/2020, 5:56 PM@Nir that's not secure enough for a banking app... the tool changes function names... and guards against rooted and jailbroken devices

10/01/2020, 5:57 PMit also prevents the app from running if we use reflection in the app
