What problem are you trying to solve??

Obfuscation wont keep someone from downloading your app and uploading
it somewhere else.

Its also a pretty weak defense against hacking.  Any decent hacker is
going to be able to read bytecode and
attack it at that level.

And finally the size of an Android app is not so big someone couldn't
easily rewrite your app from scratch if they
wanted to compete with you.  This would be safer for them too since
your code is protected under Copyright law.

In general obfuscation is way over-rated. Are you sure its worth the
time and effort your putting into it?
