Do .apk Files From Other Web Sites (not From Google Play) Contain Malware? by alohagirl22883: 10:23am On Aug 02, 2016 |
I saw that there're some websites offer this file type. I don't know whether it is safe to download and setup from these sites or not. My Android even warns me abt malware, which makes me really worried. Plz help. Thank you. |

Most might contain malwares especially the premium ones which are usually hacked or reversed engineered. It also depends on the site too. Some sites are very good while others are just malware distributors. alohagirl22883: |

Some are safe but some aren't. I often download apk from Amazon App Store or choilieng.com but if you want to try other new sources, I recommend you install ur own anti-malware app first. I have some cmt about these sites: 1. Amazon: popular so i don't have to tell about it anymore, but remember that some of apps or games can't be seen if your country is restricted. 2. http://choilieng.com . I only try this site for a short time but I think it work quite well. It looks poor but this helps me load faster, there're various app version releases. if you want to download Master MineCraft Launcher Download Master for Minecraft-Launcher , click here, you will find previous vers at the right bottom of the web. These sites contain no malware so don't worry. Have fun! |
