How do I show dependencies tree in Android Studio?

by

The image in the question doesn’t really show a tree, just a flat list of everything compiled into the app.

Are you using Gradle?

If so, you can truly see the “tree” by running a Gradle command

Android documentation: View the dependency tree

GUI

  1. Select View > Tool Windows > Gradle (or click Gradle icon in the tool windows bar).
  2. Expand AppName > Tasks > android and double-click androidDependencies. After Gradle executes the task, the Run window
    should open to display the output.

CLI

(produces tree-like list)

./gradlew app:dependencies

and/or

(produces flat list)

./gradlew app:androidDependencies

Where app is your module’s name

And you get something like so

+--- MyApp:mylibrary:unspecified
|    \--- com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1
|         +--- com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:25.3.1
|         |    \--- com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:25.3.1
|         |         \--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
|         |              \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar
|         +--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
|         |    \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar
|         \--- com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:25.3.1
|              \--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
|                   \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar
\--- com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1
     +--- com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:25.3.1
     |    \--- com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:25.3.1
     |         \--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
     |              \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar
     +--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
     |    \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar
     \--- com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:25.3.1
          \--- com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1
               \--- LOCAL: internal_impl-25.3.1.jar

For specific flavor use the command

gradle app:dependencies --configuration <flavorNameRuntimeClasspath>

Note: If you run ls (or dir on Windows) in that folder, and don’t see gradlew (or gradlew.bat), you are in the wrong folder.
