I want to create a RAT so amazing that it'll be the last one you ever need -- I think this is it.\n\nHere's why:\n* The main reason, I did started on this project is to simplify the problem of **connection** between attacker and victim.[Eliminated all port forwarding and over the internet issues]\n* Followed by, I wanted to have control over victims using smartphone📱 with a simple UI app rather then a pc💻 or remote virtual machine🖥 with command line interface. \n\nOf course, no one will serve all features since your needs may be different. So I'll be adding more in the near future. You may also suggest changes by forking this repo and creating a pull request or opening an issue.😀\n\n\n\u003cp align=\"right\"\u003e(\u003ca href=\"#top\"\u003eback to top\u003c/a\u003e)\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c!-- GETTING STARTED --\u003e\n## Getting Started\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nBefore we proceed one must have:\n\n* Android Device \n* Good Internet Connection \n\n### Installation and Usage\n\nIn order to use tool we must :\n\n- Setup your xhunter-server from [here](https://github.com/anirudhmalik/xhunter-server)\n\n\n1. Download the latest version **xhunter_vX.X.apk** from release section: [here](https://github.com/anirudhmalik/xhunter/releases)\n2. Once downloaded, Install/Open the app in your device. If you face Unknown Source error [see](https://www.maketecheasier.com/install-apps-from-unknown-sources-android) \n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/70255938/177602074-e74d2c0a-d737-4e25-834d-a5d9fa2ab6f7.jpeg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"\u003e\n\n3. Once installed, Open app and select **Build Payloads** option and select any desired option to build payload :\n  - Build WhatsApp Payload (`use this option/payload to enable whatsapp message feature`)\n  - Build + Bind Payload (`use this option/payload to bind xhunter malicious code with legitimate apk`)\n  \n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/70255938/177602507-92ff278a-0c5f-4939-9de3-e6c113b02a4d.jpeg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"\u003e  \n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/70255938/177602864-5ca60e83-00d1-42e5-bcc3-f68a73e0ba69.jpeg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"\u003e  \n\n4.
