How to get zipalign for mac?

Question

I already have a release unsigned version apk and I am trying to sign it on my mac. On the last step it suggests to zipalign the signed apk but mac doesn\'t have zipalign.

Answer 1

Thanks the info from RC.

I finally got through this. I did in following steps:

1. Download 250M+ android studio ide dmg from official site. Drag it into Application folder
2. Open it, and it automatically downloads a lot of additional stuff
3. I even created a empty new project.

Then in certain step(I am not sure which step) it created zipalign here:

~/Library/Android/sdk/build-tools/22.0.1/zipalign

If you only need "zipalign", you don't need to redo those steps, which takes time and disk space. I extracted it into the github(Can't believe no one has extracted it -_- ):
