About

Inspired by https://github.com/cyxx/extract_android_ota_payload.

Extracting images from Android OTA packages is very useful for various purposes. For example, patching the boot image to install Magisk without TWRP. However, using the above Python script is often a pain in the ass because of Python and its dependencies, especially for inexperienced Windows users.

This project aims to provide everyone with a faster & cross-platform Android OTA payload extractor that's much easier to use - just drag and drop the ROM file onto the program.
