You can now use a new gradle plugin + library to effectively obfuscate Strings in a class, Please check it here
https://github.com/MichaelRocks/paranoid
Also now there is a new plugin which can obfuscate resources also, please check it below
https://github.com/shwenzhang/AndResGuard
And help share and upvote this great information, so more developers can use it and thus more and more developers will contribute for further development of these plugins, and thus we can collectively improve these plugins and will give a nightmare for crackers.
