4shared APK: questions and answers

Does 4shared need Google Play services?

Yes. The APK declares Google Play services as required, so it may not work on phones without them, such as recent Huawei models.

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the 4shared APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 3f576f163ae7de4436be0109aed83f17.
