An APK file is an installer for an Android app. It can be used for distributing apps outside the Google Play Store, though Google Play also uses them internally.You can convert it to another archive format in order to see the contents of the app, albeit compiled.
Note 1: MConverter can only extract the contents of the APK file. No converter can make it into another installable format.
Note 2: It is not possible to create an installable APK file if the selected ZIP file does not contain an installable Android app or game. No file converter is able to do that.
Note 3: Split APKs are not supported.
