Is halowapp.store safe to use?

halowapp.store currently scores 49/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.

Does halowapp.store have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. halowapp.store presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 83 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

Has halowapp.store been flagged by antivirus engines?

1 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged halowapp.store as malicious or suspicious (1 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.

Is halowapp.store on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No. halowapp.store is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.

Where is halowapp.store hosted?

halowapp.store resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.

How often is the halowapp.store report updated?

This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 16, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around halowapp.store have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

Confidence

The site distributes mobile app files (APK/IPA) for a live-TV streaming application but provides no company registration, contact email, phone, address, privacy policy, or terms of service. VIPRE flagged the domain as malware, though the reason is unclear from the scan alone — it may reflect the app's unlicensed-streaming nature or the distribution method itself. The domain sits on a .store TLD, which is over-represented in scam farms. Promotion occurs exclusively through Kurdish-language Facebook groups and a Telegram channel (@Halowapp), a pattern typical of underground or grey-market app distribution. No scam reports, complaints, or positive reviews exist in public databases, which for a low-traffic site is unsurprising but combined with the lack of legal transparency raises concern. The app itself appears to stream Kurdish channels and sports, likely without proper licensing.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents a minimal interface titled 'Halowapp — Live TV Experience' with navigation links (Home, Manage Playlists, Activate, News, FAQ, Blogs, Contact) but no functional contact form, email, or phone number. The body text claims the app is 'Available on All Platforms' (Android, iOS, Android TV, Smart TV). A public /apk/ directory exposes downloadable files including HalowTV1.1.6.apk (~79MB) and HalowTV.ipa, plus AceStreamPro.apk, with file dates ranging from 2025 to 2026.

Infrastructure

The domain uses a valid SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services with 83 days remaining. Hosting IP 172.67.167.161 has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. The site does not redirect or employ homoglyph/IDN tricks. However, WHOIS data is unavailable, preventing verification of domain registration details or ownership.

Domain History

Domain age is unknown; WHOIS lookups returned no results. The .store TLD is flagged in our scam-network fingerprint as over-represented in scam farms. No legitimate business registration was found in any jurisdiction.

Web Reputation

One antivirus engine (VIPRE) flagged the domain as malware; 91 others passed. Browser blocklists are clean. No scam reports, complaints, or positive reviews appear in public databases. The site is not indexed in global traffic rankings, indicating minimal legitimate user base or search visibility.

Risk Factors

VIPRE antivirus engine flagged the domain as malware.
No business registration, company name, or legal entity found in any jurisdiction.
No contact email, phone number, postal address, privacy policy, or terms of service on the site.
Operates on a .store TLD, which is over-represented in scam farms and low-trust operations.
Promotion exclusively through Telegram and Kurdish-language Facebook groups, typical of underground app distribution.
Public /apk/ directory exposes downloadable files with no verification or integrity checks.
IPTV app likely streams unlicensed content, raising legal and security concerns.

Positive Signals

Valid SSL certificate with 83 days remaining.
Hosting IP has zero abuse reports and clean reputation.
No clone-site indicators; appears to be a standalone operation.
No cross-domain redirects or homoglyph/IDN tricks detected.

AI Recommendation

Do not download or install apps from this site. The lack of business registration, legal transparency, antivirus detection, and reliance on unlicensed streaming make it a high-risk source. Use official app stores (Google Play, Apple App Store) for verified, legitimate applications.

Research summary

Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above

We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for halowapp.store and found no scam reports, complaints, or positive reviews. The site distributes IPTV app files (APK/IPA) for 'Halow TV' and promotes them via Telegram (@Halowapp) and Kurdish-language Facebook groups. Users are directed to download the app and use shared login codes. The app appears to stream Kurdish channels, sports, and movies, likely without proper licensing. No business registration, legal disclaimers, or contact information exist on the site or in web searches. For a low-traffic, underground app distributor, the absence of public complaints is expected and does not indicate legitimacy.
