Analysing Android files

In this post I'll simply be listing several tools to analyse (malicious) Android files. 

All tools or scanners listed are free to use.

If you wish to analyze files from the Google Play store without actually installing/downloading them directly to your phone (or, for example, you don't use Android):

• APK Downloader
• APK Pure

If you know of other free tools or scanners for Android files (.apk, .dex), do let me know.
