How do you obfuscate APK for Android that is published with Flash Pro CC ?

I created an application for Android smartphones using Flash Pro CC.

I don't know much about obfuscating APK files but I heard that APK can be easily decompiled and therefore my AS file sourcecode is vulnerable. So I started searching on google and found that ProGuard does obfuscation. But it's for Eclipse so I guess i can't use ProGuard for my app which is created using Flash Pro CC. Is there any way to obfuscate my APK? or is there any other way to protect my APK?

ProGuard is a command line utility as you can see here:

ProGuard

ProGuard is a command-line tool with an optional graphical user interface. It also comes with plugins for Ant, for Gradle, and for the JME Wireless Toolkit.

While it's nice to use it in an integrated environment you should investigate the usage of it on the command line.

An APK is a .zip file. Feel free to unzip it and explore the contents as any other person could. You'll see what exactly is exposed to others. Consider by what you see if anything is actually in danger before you pursue a potentially complicated or unnecessary procedure like obfuscation.
