Attach Jprofiler to running app on Android Device

Question

I need to profile an application developed for android platform. I've already used jprofiler in web-application development. I use Android Studio (and Eclipse with ADT plugin) and actually i use DDMS to check cpu and heap memory comsuption.

Is it possible to connect Jprofiler to a running application on Android device?

JProfiler is a tool for profiling applications running on the Java virtual machine. Even though Android uses the Java language, it runs on a different virtual machine, so you can't use any of the Java profilers such as JProfiler or YourKit to profile the applications.

Instead, you need to use the Google-provided tools such as DDMS.

For Android, DDMS is deprecated, instead use Android Profiler.

When I wrote the question, Android Profile was not ready. Now you are right :) – xcesco Feb 01 '20 at 17:30
