Is app-universal-release.apk safe?
Android APK with zero malicious detections across 75 engines and medium prevalence.
All 75 engines returned clean results with no tier-1 detections. The file shows typical ambient behaviour and medium distribution history.

Before installing
Install it only from Google Play, the developer's official store, or another source you independently trust.
If you already installed it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.
Intelligence
The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 engines returned clean results with no tier-1 detections. The file shows typical ambient behaviour and medium distribution history.
Zero malicious detections from 75 engines, including 17 tier-1 engines, is a strong clean signal. Medium prevalence over 32 days indicates established distribution rather than a new threat. The single heuristic flag for direct-IP traffic is explicitly noted as inconclusive without host reputation data. No sandbox runtime data, no external-intel hits, and no similar-hash matches further support a benign classification.
What We Detected
75 antivirus engines scanned the APK; none flagged it malicious or suspicious. 17 tier-1 engines explicitly marked it clean.
Threat Behavior
No sandbox execution data is available. The sample contacted seven external IP addresses without recorded domains, but the heuristic rule itself states this pattern can occur in legitimate installers. No malicious child files or external-intel hits were found.
What To Do Now
The file can be treated as safe for normal use. Keep Android security features enabled and only install apps from trusted sources.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- contactedHosts is null so no complete host-reputation result is available for the 7 IPs listed in behaviour.contactedIps
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero malicious detections across 75 engines
- Medium prevalence with 61 unique submitters
- No external intelligence hits
The evidence supports treating the APK as safe; continue normal security practices.

Detection sources at a glance
The available sources did not agree on a named threat category.
Available reference checks returned no match, but at least one source was unavailable. This is not a clean result.
Signatures and behavior heuristics
Behavioral heuristics matched patterns associated with malware. Corroborating evidence determines how much weight they carry.
The sample contacted an external IP address directly and no application domain was recorded. Direct-IP traffic also occurs in legitimate installers and infrastructure, so this is supporting context only and requires corroboration from host reputation and other runtime evidence.
