      <description>APKiD v3.2.0 adds tracker scanning (`-st`), match printing with rule filtering (`-m`, `--print-filter`), and Dart &gt;=3.13 AOT detection.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `-st` / `--scan-trackers` flag to enable scanning APKs for embedded third-party trackers (generated from the Exodus Privacy tracker database).⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `-m` / `--print-matches` flag to print matched YARA rules and strings to stdout.
• Adds `--print-filter RULES` option to filter printed matches by rule name: comma-separated names to include (with `+` or no prefix) or exclude (with `-` prefix); implies `--print-matches`.
• Adds detection rule for Dart &gt;= 3.13 AOT export symbols.
• Removes deprecated `dexguard_d` YARA rule.
Breaking changes:
• The `dexguard_d` YARA rule has been removed; any workflow or downstream tooling that matches on `dexguard_d` results will no longer receive that output.
