Is Fieldwatch.apk safe?

Verdict
Safe

No engine detected this Android package, and one sandbox found no offensive activity, although direct-IP contacts remain unverified by host reputation.

None of 75 engines flagged the APK, including all 17 reporting tier-1 engines, and one completed sandbox run produced no malicious verdict or offensive techniques. The main caveat is direct traffic to 12 IP addresses whose reputation was not checked, alongside the package's recent appearance and obfuscation tag.

Install with normal care

Use only an official or otherwise verifiable source, review the app's permissions, and keep endpoint and Android protections enabled. Recheck the hash if unexpected network activity or device behavior appears.

Analyst conclusion

None of 75 engines flagged the APK, including all 17 reporting tier-1 engines, and one completed sandbox run produced no malicious verdict or offensive techniques. The main caveat is direct traffic to 12 IP addresses whose reputation was not checked, alongside the package's recent appearance and obfuscation tag.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • MalwareTips.Synth.DirectIpC2 fired after direct connections to 12 external IP addresses without recorded application domains; host reputation was not checked or saved.
  • file.tags includes obfuscated and contains-elf, which can complicate static inspection but is not independently evidence of malware.
  • file.ageDays=1 means the sample has only a short observation history.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Recommended action

Use only an official or otherwise verifiable source, review the app's permissions, and keep endpoint and Android protections enabled. Recheck the hash if unexpected network activity or device behavior appears.

6 evidence-based answers
Is Fieldwatch.apk safe?
Evidence-based answer
Fieldwatch.apk appears safe. 0 of 75 antivirus engines flagged it. Install it only from Google Play, the developer's official store, or another source you independently trust.
What is Fieldwatch.apk?
Evidence-based answer
Fieldwatch.apk is an Android app (APK), about 8.4 MB. Our analysis did not identify a verdict-driving threat signal. A file's name can be reused by different files, so we identify it by its cryptographic hash (below).
How many antivirus engines detected Fieldwatch.apk?
Evidence-based answer
None — 0 of 75 antivirus engines flagged Fieldwatch.apk. That's reassuring, though it is not proof that a file is safe, so we also weigh its behaviour, identity, and reputation.
What is the SHA-256 hash of Fieldwatch.apk?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of Fieldwatch.apk is 0100a701ea15f14d77ad5acfa94ddd0af061358d92b323ccdb45a50a0e33133e, and its MD5 is 6e96325469207738ca4fafd5fb5efdca. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
Is it safe to install Fieldwatch.apk?
Evidence-based answer
Based on the recorded evidence, Fieldwatch.apk has a low observed risk. The important caveat is source: make sure you downloaded it from the official website or a trusted store, because attackers sometimes distribute malware-laced copies under a legitimate file's name. If your own antivirus flags it, verify the source and the exact hash before overriding the warning.
How up to date is this analysis of Fieldwatch.apk?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on October 6, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Fieldwatch.apk is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
